I have got a customer with a opt. 11 mini. Question is how do you hook up a lap top to the system. I have worked on several opt 11C switches is it basicly the same or is there somthing different.

Its the same (ish).

There's a Port on the back of the chassis which is marked "RS 232", that where the 3 Port TTY cable should be connected too. Just connect your laptop to Port 0 or 1, with a nul modem and thats it.

If not just plug your serial cable direct into the "RS 232" port.
 
I actually have one I'm trying to get rid of.

There's a 3 cable 'octupus' cable with db25 connectors on the end. They hook up directly to a modem, so I think that means if you're connecting to a serial port on a laptop you'll need a null modem.
