Netra-T1 105 console: output, no input

Saved this old server from the waste-bin.

I connected the LOM-A port via straight UTP cable to Serial port of PC, powered on the machine and get its POST messages and startup attempts on the screen of the PC (using either HyperTerminal or TeleTerm).

However, can't type any character : nothing displayed, BREAK doesn't work.

Is there anything I should/can do on the server to make it accept input via the LOM-A port ?
