Without the Avaya adapter you can blow up the com port. It's rare but does happen.

Well i dont unserstand. IF this is the same diagram as tha actual avaya unit what is the difference. is there anything special in the avaya unit that protects it?

 

[fonedude]

In the adapter there are some resistors that protect your com port. You may never have a problem. But,I have had my 355AF shxt the bed, and had to throw it out. Its a gamble of the price of your laptop.

I have been using a pin out version for a long time. It is different than the one you listed. If you accidently plug the RJ-45 cable into a station port instead of the admin port, you will blow your com port on your laptop, and not even having a standard 355 adapter will matter. If you are interested in the pin out, I will post it.

Just to confuse the issue... I've connected using a 2 pair cable (conductors 3-4-5-6) and not had any problems, and so far as the adapter goes, I've seen an MLX port wipe out the com port using the adapter, not a good thing.
