Can you configure the UPS for me?

Should be easy. I'll just plug my regular console cable into the APC UPS in the rj45 port that is clearly labled as a serial port. Oh the entire rack just rebooted... Turns out the console port is actually a headphone jack looking thing. You would think there would be a little more safeguards preventing noobs like me from doing this, but I guess the terrifying feeling of everything shutting off at once is a pretty good learning tool.
