Very generous offer! :) Thanks a lot. Today I received another switch I ordered via eBay due to the issues a faced. The serial connection was successful on the first try. So, here is definitely something wrong with the switch itself. I cannot tell you what it is, but it is the switch.
Thank...
Well, now I tried my luck with one of my old computers having a physical RS-232 interface on its motherboard and guess what, it prints garbage to the console (I've triple checked the connection settings).
Update as promised.
Today I received the new cable:

… And it's starting to get frustrating. I still see only garbage on the console (well, it appears in a different pace now than with the other cable). Is it possible that the default connection parameters do not apply...
Thanks for the hint. The driver was already installed (Windows 10). Unfortunately, with the same outcome.
I gave up and ordered another cable with the FTDI chip. I'll post an update once tested.
Settings are as follows (checked in the driver settings as well as in the PuTTY settings):
Baud rate: 9600
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Parity: NONE
Flow control: NONE
Can anyone recommend a serial cable that is known to work with the Brocade ICX6450 (availability in Germany would be great)?
I've ordered this one, which doesn't work (it prints garbage to the console). It seems the PIN layout is wrong.
