Cisco Router Console Cable

This new Cisco CAB-CON-USBRJ45= cable provides a direct console link between a PC and compatible Cisco routers. It is designed for network engineers and administrators who need to configure or troubleshoot the 1101 and 1109 series devices via a USB port.

RJ-45 to Micro USB Connectors

The cable features an RJ-45 female network connector on one end and a Type B male micro USB connector on the other. This specific pairing allows a standard console rollover cable to plug into the router while the micro USB end connects to the management workstation without requiring a separate serial adapter.

Check Router Model and USB Port

Before ordering, verify that the target router is a Cisco 1101 or 1109 series unit. Confirm the management PC has an available micro USB Type B port or a suitable adapter, as the cable terminates in that specific connector type.

Questions about this item

Will the RJ-45 female port or micro USB male plug need replacement after repeated insertions?

The cable uses a standard RJ-45 female network connector and a Type B micro USB male plug rated for typical mating cycles; no user-serviceable parts are inside.

What is the first limit reached when the cable carries console traffic continuously on a Cisco 1101 or 1109 router?

The practical limit is the USB console session timeout or baud-rate setting on the router, not the cable itself.

Does the cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when left connected all day?

It is a passive copper assembly with no active electronics, so it produces no measurable heat and draws only the negligible current the router’s console port supplies.
