Hello Community here,
I need your help please.
I am trying to access on above mentioned devices (CISCO 4221 & Catalyst 2960 plus series) by using Putty. I am using db9 to RJ45 console cable. after i am choosing Serial with 9600 speed and pressing Open opens black window with green blinking cursor symbol but when i press Enter no reactions have.
Both devices are new ones.
I checked installed all drivers on my windows 10.
I tried another same type console cable too.
What can be reason and how to solve it please.
Thanks in advanced.

Thanks for reply. no it does not show any errors about baud issues. I checked all kind of bauds and same. after open have this window as shown in screenshot above.

Do you mean to say both have the device show the same results? which one is this?
I am sure this is config related to Baud rate as other suggested. i am more interested to know the device mode the screenshot posted and what about other device console output ?

Hi,
If this is the output you have experienced with the putty baud rate (speed) of 9600 then please try to change the putty speed value to 19200.
Best regards,
Antonin

Update on my issue:
I bought from eBay a USB to Serial console cable and it worked perfectly. So my issue is solved.
