Anyone know if an extreme console cable will work with a USB / serial converter?...not got a serial port on laptop. Tried null modem cable / serial etc but no luck!
Thanks in advance :)
 
This should work no problem. We use Belkins all of the time. The DB9 cable that you use between the USB tail and the switch console port must be a Null Modem. Normally it's a DB9-Female to DB9-Female. The USB serial tails typically have a DB9-Mail. What emulator are you using. I normally use TeraTerm.
