What's this?
This is a collection of pinouts that I've gathered over the years and umpteen hours of
buzzing out cables. Since others are bound to find some of this information useful, I've
cleaned it up and html-ized it, but hopefully in a non-obtrusive way so that it is still useable
from an 80-column dumb terminal.
If you've got any corrections, additions, or comments, please email me at the address found
above.
Data cables are straight through. When crimping RJ ends onto the cables, the following
colors are assigned to the following pins on the connector (see above):
In general, holding the connector in your hand, tab side down, open end towards you, and
insert the stripped cable with the *blue* wire on the left, except for RJ11 4-wire
connectors, which has *yellow* on the left.
Got that? Good. Now a quick RS-232 connection table to round things out:
DB-9 Male Connector. Found on O2, Octane, and Origin systems, have the following
IBM(R) PC/AT(tm) compatible pin assignments:
-------------------

\ 6 7 8 9 /

Mini-DIN-8 serial port connectors are found on the Personal IRIS 4D/30, 4D/35, Indigo,
Indy, and Indigo2. They are also found on the Origin 200 and Origin 2000 systems, used
for the MMSC/System controller ("Aux") port. The pin assignments are:
---------
/ 8 7 6 \
( 5 4 3 )
\ 2 1 /

Mini-DIN-6 P/S2 keyboard connectors are found on Indigo, Indigo2, Indy, O2, Octane, and
Onyx systems. Note that Indigo systems use the same connector but a different pinout -- see
below for that pinout. The pin assignments for the system keyboard connector are shown in
the following table:

Mini-DIN-6 keyboard connectors are found on Indigo, Indigo2, Indy, O2, Octane, and

Older SGI systems used a DB15 connector for the keyboard and mouse, with either a DIN6
or DB9 connector at the keyboard end. Here's the pinouts for the DB15-DIN6 cable:

SGI P/S2 Keyboard and Mouse to RJ45 plug, using (2) mini-din6 connectors to (1) RJ45
plug.
Use to extend mouse & keyboard connections with RJ45 cable. ONLY for SGI systems that
have P/S 2 compatible ports (Indy, Indigo2, O2, etc).
This is a "Y" cable; two mini-din6 connectors are wired to one RJ45 plug. A pair of
adaptors is needed, one mini-din6 female set, and one mini-din6 male set. Custom made by
Anixter 408/435-1212, but SGI I/S stocks them internally- contact alex@csd.sgi.com.
$20.75 each, so pair is $41.50. Mark Aubin aubin@asd.sgi.com

Most Challenge L and XL systems have a front panel System Controller DB9 available.
However, early systems were not shipped with the front plate to present a female DB9.
There may be a small ribbon cable with an IDC end (edge row connector) available behind
the access panel; if not, you'll have to take the back skins and panel off (where the power
cord plugs in) to get access to the IDC socket off the backplane. Anyhow, here's the pinouts
for the IDC connector:

Annex 2 Connectors
An Annex 2 uses standard telco (PBX) 50 pin connectors. (Centronics 50 pin connector).
Each connector holds eight (8) terminal lines, like so:

Modular adapters (Ortronics' P/N OR-8120M25-8/6) are used to adapt the 50pin PBX
connector to eight (8) six pin RJ45 plugs. Each 6 pin RJ45 plug has the following pinout:
RJ45 PBX # Signal
----- ----- ------
1 28 CTS
2 27 RXD
3 1 DTR
4 26 TXD
5 2 GND
6 3 N/C
Connecting a 6 conductor straight through RJ45 data cable from this plug to a standard
RJ45 to DB-style connector (see above) yields the following color / signal table. THIS IS
THE IMPORTANT TABLE!

The console connection on an Annex 3 is on a seperate RJ45 plug on the back of the
system. Use a standard RJ45-DB25 adaptor with the following pinout to connect it to a
terminal:

Short 4,5,8 together if you need to spoof flow control. Challenge System Controller Ports
need this.
Annex RJ45-8pin:
3 Yellow or Gr/Wh
5 Black or Wh/Gr
6 Red or Bl/Wh
The ends are sensitive; you *must* plug the Cisco end into the Cisco,
and the Annex end into the Annex.
SGI "Etherlite" terminal servers are remarketed products from Central Data Systems. They
are 8, 16, or 32 port ethernet based serial ports, connected "directly" to the SGI host system
via a kernel driver and some system daemons -- they give normal looking devices as
/dev/tty[mdf][\d][\d+]. You need the 'el_serial' inst package installed to use these servers.
Good additional information on the drivers is at http://www.digi.com.

Using straight-thru 8-pin RJ45 cables and the various pinouts listed in this section, it is
possible to mix-and-match the connectors to what is needed. Connect two "modem"
adaptors (one DB25 Male for the modem, one DB9 Male for the SGI) for a modem cable,
or exchange one "modem" adaptor for a "null" adaptor to create a null modem cable to
connect a terminal to an SGI, or two SGI systems back-to-back. Since there is no such thing
as a RJ-MiniDIN-8 adaptor, an SGI P/N X5-9to8 pigtail is used to give a female DB9 on
systems with Mini-DIN-8 connectors.

adaptors, above:
