Cabling Considerations | MRV Communications LX-4000 Series manual

Appendix D - Cabling the LX-4000 Series

Cabling Considerations

Standard cabling items available from MRV allow you to connect to any serial device that uses male

or female DB-25 or DB-9 connectors. All you need is the appropriate cable (crossover cable for connecting to a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) device, straight-through cable for connecting to a

DCE (Data Communication Equipment) device), and the correct modular adapter (male or female DB- 25 connector), which is essentially an RJ-45-to-DB25 adapter.

Serial Device Connectors

The signal assignments of the 8-pin jacks are shown in Figure 23.
