PA-4T+ Port Adapter Cable Pinouts

X.21 Connections

The router end of all X.21 adapter cables is a high-density 60-pin plug. The network end of the adapter cable is a standard DB-15 connector. Figure 1-7 shows the connectors at the network end of the X.21 adapter cable. X.21 cables are available as either DTE (DB-15 plug) or DCE (DB-15 receptacle).

EIA-530 Connections

The EIA-530 adapter cable is available in DTE mode only. The router end of the EIA-530 adapter cable is a high-density 60-pin plug. The network end of the adapter cable is a standard DB-25 plug commonly used for EIA/TIA-232 connections. Figure 1-8 shows the DB-25 connector at the network end of the adapter cable.

PA-4T+ Port Adapter Cable Pinouts

The PA-4T+ supports EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, X.21, V.35, and EIA-530 serial interfaces. All PA-4T+ ports use a a 60-pin receptacle that supports all available interface types. A special serial adapter cable determines the electrical interface type and mode of the interface. The router end of all of the adapter cables has a 60-pin plug; the connectors at the network end are the standard connectors used for the respective interfaces. All interface types except EIA-530 are available in DTE or DCE format: DTE with a plug at the network end and DCE with a receptacle at the network end. V.35 is available in either mode with either gender at the network end. EIA-530 is available in DTE only. The tables that follow list the signal pinouts for both the DTE and DCE mode serial port adapter cables, for each of the following PA-4T+ interface types:
