     I have been trying to create my own serial breakout adaptor but am having no sucess.

    The scale i have been following is base on the link shared in the achived post.

     

    http://community.arubanetworks.com/t5/Access-Points/Serial-Over-Ethernet-Breakout-Cable/td-p/991

     

    This is what i have done. Just wondering if i have misunderstood the way how it should be linked or something went wrong

     

    ** i am unable to power the AP up with this format but the AP works fine with just a cable linked to the power injector.

     

     

      1       2       3    4      5     6      7     8

    BR / WBR / G / WB / B / WG / O / WO    (To AP)

                        l                     l      l       l       (Links)

           /         / G /       /     / WG / O / WO    (To Network)

     

    Serial Port 2  - WBR

    Serial Port 3 - B

    Serial Port 5 - BR / WB

    Hey there,

     

    That would be the older models AP such as AP65 which has only one ehernet port.

    Does anyone have any idea ? I know that the design works just that i might have screwed up the cabling. Does the color coding matter in this case ?

     

    Does anyone have a working design and is able to share with me the color connection ?
