Cisco Console Connection
The StarTech ROLLOVERMM6 is a six-foot rollover cable built for direct console access to Cisco routers, switches and other network equipment. It provides the standard serial pinout required for out-of-band management sessions.
Yost-Standard Wiring
Both ends terminate in RJ45 male plugs wired to the Yost Serial Device Wiring Standard, ensuring compatibility with Cisco console ports without adapters. The blue jacket makes the cable easy to identify in a crowded rack or kit bag.
Six-Foot Reach
At six feet long, the cable suits bench work or rack-side troubleshooting where the console port is within arm's reach. Installations needing a longer run to a distant terminal or crash cart will need a different length.

Questions about this item
Does the RJ45 rollover cable follow the Yost serial wiring standard for Cisco console ports?
Yes, it conforms to the Yost Serial Device Wiring Standard so the pin-out matches Cisco console port requirements.
What physical space does the 6 ft blue cable need for a typical console connection?
The six-foot length reaches from a laptop or terminal on a desk to a rack-mounted router or switch without excess slack.
How do you connect the cable to a Cisco device and what step is often missed?
Plug one RJ45 end into the computer serial adapter or console port and the other into the Cisco console port; the step often missed is using a USB-to-serial adapter when the computer lacks a native serial port.
