Location: South Carolina Rep Power: 0    | Program M2250 console to transfer calls directly to v/m How are you folks set up to monitor and admin your switch? I have to walk to our switch room and log on to a TTY...and I HATE that. I noticed a free SDI port and assumed that it could be extended over CAT5. So, I ran a line to my desk. I've got what appears to be the proper connections for in the room (RJ45-to-serial with eliminator plugged to SDI line). What do I need for my end? Will any old 9pin RJ45-to-serial work? Does Nortel make a proprietary line or connector? What pieces am I missing? | ||||||||

| Its not going to be easy Look in the Installation section 553-3001-210 its a little vaque here and there is no pin out but you could look at a cable that you have now and see what has pins in it.the book says to use a N8D95 cable you will have to set the baud rate and parity on your SDI port you are going to use and confiqure your tty port in LD 17 or you could just dial into your external modem from your office computer | ||||||||

Rep Power: 0 | I just ran a cat5 from the phone room to my office (standard wiring to wall jacks). Using RJ45 to serial adpaters I connected one end to my PC's serial port and the other end to one of the serial (TTY) ports on the switch. Configure terminal software and bingo, everything works great. | ||||||||

Location: Jacksonville, AR Rep Power: 7  | Whats your PBX Model/Version. Before we installed our ELAN to our switch, we had a serial port as well. We connect a Short Haul Modem between our PBX's and OTM server, well over 1000' ft down a airport concourse through telephone puchdowns. Our vendor had ELAN setup in our switch already(Meridian 1 Opt 61C v25.30), but because we did not pay for them to put it in, they did not connect it for us. All we did was buy 2 $15 AUI to 10BASET adapters, connect it to our existing LAN swtich, slapped an additional ethernet card in our OTM Server, and BOOM, we had ethernet to the switch. We still use the serial as a backup. | ||||||||
