I’m not familiar with that particular model but if the unit does not have an IP address you might be able to assign it one via the hardware address with the ARP command.

For example, if the hardware address of the Switch is 94A3F2C5EE54 and you want to assign it an address of 192.168.0.1 the command would look something like this:

arp -s 192.168.0.1 9A-A3-F2-C5-EE-54

If you are trying to use the console port, make sure you are not using a plain old cat-5 cable to plug into the 9pin adaptor. It needs to be a Cisco specific cable and adaptor. Then connect one end to a COM port on a PC, and the other into the console port on the Cisco, and use the settings of 9600 BPS, 8-N-1.
