2.3.10 Overhead Data, (P1)
The overhead interface connector is a 25-pin male D interface located on the rear panel of the
modem.
This connector pin-out allows for connection of EIA-422, EIA-485 and EIA-232 data interfaces
for use with overhead framing. It also supports signaling for tactical applications
