Man I'm having seriously bad luck with a DIY jack. I tried this with a keystone and still nothing. I hope the serial port isn't fried. My serial cable is late because of the northeast weather and I'd really like to get this tested, but so far blank console (Xterm/Putty Windows, MiniCom/Putty...
Something like these? https://www.lowes.com/pd/IDEAL-25-Pack-Rj11-LDC-Connector/1000331505
That's a good idea I might retry the splice to see if that was the problem.
Well I couldn't get the Cisco cable splice correct. USB Mini B to Cisco console to RS232 to USB in this configuration: Brocade Mini-USB to RS232 cheat cable! : Brocade my wire strippers didn't work at a wire gauge that small so it could be that I damaged the copper at the splice point stripping...
Not yet but I’ll post after doing so. About to hack up a Cisco console cable to see if I can get serial access as above.
Letting it fully boot definitely helped though it was vacuum cleaner loud when it first started.
So I received my ICX7450 in the mail. Holy crap this thing is loud and I'm not super sensitive to fan noise.

Damn you have a wealth of knowledge. Hopefully the seller will modify and I can save a bit. Thanks (again) for the info. :)
Looks like I need to familiarize myself with that doc. I can’t wait to get this stuff installed.
Awesome, thanks. I’m alright with the power draw but hopefully it’s not crazy loud. I currently have my rack in the living room. Spec sheet says 47db so I guess I’ll find out what that means. The 6610 would have been better I think but oh well.
I went ahead and snagged some 40gb qsfp+...
Great post! Thanks for sharing. I've been racking my brain over what switch to get for my new homelab and your post really helped.
I meant to pick up an ICX-7250, but in my tiredness I accidentally bought (and paid for) an ICX-7450-48 for $200 shipped... is this going to be a problem for some...
