Hello all,

I have been trying to connect to my switch all day today with no luck. I dont have a serial cable on my pc and I need to connect to a switch. I remember having to create a console cable and I did just that. But my machine doesnt recognize the cable at all. Do I have to go through a serial to connect to my switch or am I just insange.....

Dell Powerconnect 5300 series

You will need to get yourself a USB -> Serial converter... they run for about 12$
