Custom_Cisco-RJ45-to-DB-9_Console-Cable_WiringPinout
I needed a Console Cable for my Cisco units so I decided to make one.
I created this Cheat Sheet to help me keep my head straight.
Because I never liked crimping cables in my ccna class, i just wanted to use a regular ethernet cable.
This worked out perfectly! I soldered the emulated 568A cable to a DB-9 connector with "L" bent leads (which made it easier IMHO).
I will share images of the finished cable connected to an TTL-to-USB adapter which worked well through the magic of libusb.
I don't know if this chart will be of any use to others but I decided to share it anyways. Hope it helps.
