Has anyone ever converted the standard blue Cisco console cable, to a APC RJ-11 console cable? I currently have a pdu with no console cable :(
I have tried holding the button for 5 seconds to get the IP, but I'm not sure what the correct format is that is scrolling. Anyone done this before to get the IP?

I've tried and it didn't work. Thankfully I have the APC console cable. Nothing else seems to work

I had the same problem.

If you know the pin-outs you can make one up but I don't know the pin outs.
