Cisco 2901 console to HP proliant G6 not working

Hi All,

I'm having difficulty trying to console in,via cisco 2901, to a remote HP proliant G6 server through its serial port.

Connection is like this :

Cisco 2901/EHWIC#1/Port 10 -> patchpanel -> (RJ45->Serial) HP Prolient 380 G6

I understand from the output below that cisco 2901 is not clear to send.

cisco2901#

Line 0/1/10,

Length: 24 lines, Width: 80 columns

Baud rate (TX/RX) is 9600/9600, no parity, 2 stopbits, 8 databits

Status: Ready

Capabilities: EXEC Suppressed, Output non-idle

Modem state: Ready

Modem hardware state: noCTS noDSR  DTR noRTS

My question is how can I confirm the serial port have the right settings and its operational.

Server is running Red Hat linux.

Many Thanks
