Attaching PA-4T+ Port Adapter Interface Cables

On a single PA-4T+, you can use up to four synchronous serial connections. Use the following procedure to connect a serial cable to the PA-4T+:

Step 1 Attach the appropriate serial cable directly to the receptacle on the PA-4T+ and tighten the strain-relief screws. (See Figure 7-1.)

Note Port adapters have a handle attached, but this handle is not shown to allow a detailed view of each port adapter’s faceplate.
