Cabling Specifications

This appendix contains pinout information for WS-C1400 Concentrator and adapter ports, the admin. interface port, and the optical bypass switch connector.


CDDI Cabling

Following are the cable considerations for the CDDI ports.

Figure D-1 shows the pinout for the CDDI/MLT-3 concentrator and adapter ports for A, B, M, and S ports.

Pin Signal Pin Signal
1 TX+ 5 --
2 TX-- 6 --
3 -- 7 RX+
4 -- 8 RX--

The EIA-568 wiring scheme is recommended. Table D-2 lists the EIA 568 RJ45 wiring scheme.

1 2 White/orange
2 2 Orange
3 3 White/green
4 1 Blue
5 1 White/blue
6 3 Green
7 4 White/brown
8 4 Brown

Figure D-2 shows examples of modular cross-connect cables used for CDDI/MLT-3 connections between various devices using the CDDI-FDDI translator.

Admin. Port Cabling

The cabling for the concentrator admin. port must be straight-through, twisted-pair. Each of the four pairs of wires that make up the twisted-pair cable must be individually twisted.

Table D-3 and Table D-4 list the pinouts for the EIA/TIA-232 admin. port.

Table D-3 : EIA/TIA-232 DTE Pinout

Switch Terminal (DTE)
Signal RJ-45 Pin Direction DB-25 Pin Signal
CTS 1 Output 4 RTS
DSR 2 Output 20 DTR
RXD 3 Output 2 TXD
GND 4 -- 7 GND
GND 5 -- -- --
TXD 6 Input 3 RXD
DTR 7 Input 6 DSR
RTS 8 Input 5 CTS

Table D-4 lists the pinout for a null-modem cable used with the admin. port. Modems are considered to be data communication equipment (DCE).

Table D-4 : EIA/TIA-232 DCE Pinout

Switch Modem (DCE)
Signal RJ-45 Pin Direction DB-25 Pin Signal
CTS 1 Output 5 CTS
DSR 2 Output 6 DCD
RXD 3 Output 3 RXD
GND 4 -- 7 GND
GND 5 -- -- GND
TXD 6 Input 2 TXD
DTR 7 Input 20 DTR
RTS 8 Input 4 RTS


Optical Bypass Switch Pinout

Figure D-3 shows the pinout and connector for the optical bypass switch. The connector is a standard female DIN type.
