How do I connect mge pulsar extreme ups to sun fire v120 ?

I am trying to construct a connector so as to connect mge pulsar extreme ups to a sun fire v120 server. Does anybody know the exact working wiring diagram between the mge's db9 male connector and the v120's rj45 connector ? Any help would be welcome.Thanks in advance

Here is a guess...

I would build it using a D9f to RJ45f adapter and a cat5 RJ45 straight through cable.

Adapter Wiring

D9f RJ45f

1 4

2 6

3 3

5 5

6 2, 7 & 8

This should work as long as the UPS docs are reasonably accurate (UPS vendors are notorious for spreading misinformation about their serial interfaces.)

Good luck

Not clear about gender of D9, MGE diagram would seem to indicate they have a female connector, so you might need a male D9 adapter instead of female.

I built your proposed wiring but it does not work. Do I need to do any special configuration to serial Port ? I configured it as terminal in 9600 bps, bidirectional and hardware flow control. I am trying to use serial port b in sun v120.

Any suggestions would be welcome

Thanks in advance
