I see that it says compatibility with r740xd but, it does not specifically say r740.

Does anyone have any personal experience with this NDC and a r740, I hope there's not some sort of large difference where this NDC isn't compatible with a non XD model.

Also, I saw some posts from 5+ years ago saying that the Intel x710 chipset was a bit... Finicky? I haven't seen anything that's recent about it though. Does anyone have any experience with issues on the x710 cards?

I am looking to get at least 2x10Gb ports onto my 740 without taking a PCIe slot, I currently have a x520 PCIe card installed but, I need the PCIe slot so my 740 can achieve its final boss form.

TIA!

Hi, I followed the cisco Pinot and used a usb to TTL converter. I cut the connector off of a cat6 cable and wired it up to the usb to TTL converter.

I am using 9600 8N1 with no flow control and am getting garbled text from a brocade icx-6610 and also an HPE Poe+ switch. So I am assuming it's something to do with the converter?

I do have an actual cisco rj45 to usb cable coming to test but, I don't understand why I would be getting garbled text, like a bad baudrate setting.

I have tried several baudrates, most give garbled text. I have tx, Rx and gnd hooked up (CTS, RTS isn't needed it says, I did test with them connected but it made no difference) and am using minicom as an emulator.

Any thoughts or ideas?
