NTI RACKMUX RACKMOUNT ANSI TERMINAL DRAWER
1.2 Connect The Cables
1.Connect a female SUB D 9 end of the null modem cable (supplied) to the "SERIAL 1" male SUB D 9 serial interface connector on the RACKMUX (see Fig. 4).
2.Connect the other end of the null modem cable to a CPU.
Alternatively, use an Ethernet cable to connect to a CPU (see Fig. 5). For direct connection, use a crossover cable (see pinout on page 46). For connection through a Local Area Network (LAN), use a patch cable wired straight through (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2, etc.).
Note: A serial cable (Figure 4) and Ethernet cable cannot both be connected at the same time.
3. Connect the | Attach local printer |

| either by parallel cable to Parallel |
| or by serial cable to Serial 2 |
4.If connecting a printer, connect either a serial printer cable to the remaining male SUB D 9 connector or a parallel printer cable to the female SUB D 25 connector (see page 3, items 19 & 20).
5.Connect the IEC power cord to the IEC connector.
