Have you had a look at the manual?

Alternativ RS45 to DB9 adabter + straight RJ45 cable 9600/8/N/1

Hi there... just found this post and actually get the same problem !
I need to connect to console Port but only USB port on the Switch. I tried an DB9/USB Adapter and then serial cable but nothing happened. Then an RJ45/USB Adpater with RJ45 cable and then adpater DB9 to my notebook for Putty but nothing.
Got someone a solution ? or direct link to get the right cable ?
Thanks for your help

I really don´t understand why it´s so complicated to get an answer ! Is this product so special ? and why we can´t find a PN from Alcatel for this Console cable ??
So, as I said I got an Omniswitch OS6900-x20 with an USB port in front for the console connection ! Need to know where I can find the right cable, a link, a tipp or something !
Thanks a lot !

there differnces between the models. For the X20 you need an adapter with this pins https://dokuwiki.alu4u.com/doku.php?id= ... ter_os6900
The adapter will be delivered with every switch. I do not know any special part-number for it.

Hey, I need a console cable for an OS6900-x40. Can it be built the same as for the X-20?
If so, is a normal USB cable and then to a patch cable enough? This then into the adapter for Com?

Thanks for the info

Best regards
