sun netra t1

so i've grabbed this sun netra t1 for some small dev work. now obviously i need to install sol10. no problem done it a million times except for the fact that i've never actually done it w/o a term server. so i grab a usb to serial and a serial to rj45 (the one you get in every cisco order.. roll over i believe) and plug it up and port it in the serial b connection. power on the server and get nothing from my hyperterminal session.

what the hell have i done wrong here? i feel so noobie for this one but i'm really at a lose here. i get no post messages or ok prompt.
