I have three Force 10 S25s that we purchased from Dell. They were recertified and out of warranty (I'm don't know id they even came with a warranty)
Anyway I cannot connect with any of them via the console. Nor do they get link lights when connected to an Intel X540-T2.
I've tried different servers in case I blew the serial ports. I've made a straight through cable and connected with to an RJ45 to serial adapter (This works with a Dell PowerConnect switch)
The serial connection is 9600/8/1. I'm not sure what else to try. Three bad switches seem odd (Although we have had problems with other devices on this shipment from Dell.)
Anything I've missed?
