I am using the light blue console cable that came with the switch and a 9 pin (straight) gender bender.

I am also familar with the differing needs of different units. We are in the process of changing out different manufactor's swiths with cisco. i.e. nortel, SMC (yuck!), 3com, and HP.
Some of these require a straight cable, others a cross-over, I have already tried both. I cannot console into the SMC (model 6624) either, but I can get into the Nortel 450-24.
