RS-422/X.21 Cabling

External devices are connected to the daughterboards on the DCP386i and DCP486e adapters via a breakout cable. This cable provides eight short cables, each with a DB25M (male) connector. The breakout cable is connected to the daughterboard via a 100-pin connector.

All connections should be made using shielded cabling to reduce radio frequency interference. Emulex provides several different cables for connecting to external devices. Contact Emulex Network Systems Division for information on available cables and prices.
