A blue rolled cable should work for the console ports on either a Cat5500 or
the 4000/4500's. I have all 4000/4500's on my lab using the "rolled" cables.
Just make sure you have "trans in all" and "no exec" on all your term lines
and you are using the "proper" RJ45 to DB25 MALE adapter. The part # on the
side of this adapter should read: 29-0881-01
