wsmPortCableType
Module: XYLAN-WSM-MIB
OID (symbolic): XYLAN-WSM-MIB::wsmPortCableType
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.800.2.7.1.1.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: The type of cable attached to the universal serial port. Non Universal Serial Ports will always return 'unknown'.
NOTE: RS-449 cables will return as RS-530 as they are detected as the same type. RS-449 is implemented only as a different connector (DB-37 instead of DB-25) on the end of the cable.
What is wsmPortCableType?
This value reports the type of cable actually detected as attached to a universal serial port, such as RS-232 DTE/DCE, V.35 DTE/DCE, RS-530 DTE/DCE, X.21 DTE/DCE, ISDN U or S/T, T1, or E1; non-universal-serial ports always report unknown, and RS-449 cables are detected and reported as RS-530 since they use the same signaling. Admins use it to confirm what cable is physically plugged into a port without needing to visually inspect it. A port reporting wsmPortCableType as noneAttached(1) tells the admin no cable is currently connected to that serial port.
