Cable and Connector Pin Assignments

This section provides the pin assignments for connectors typically used to connect network devices to the TokenSpeed module. For each connection type, the illustrations show the TokenSpeed port type, pin numbers, signal, and phantom source. All cables are shown as straight-through cables because the correct port type setting on the TokenSpeed module automatically adjusts the port for any needed crossover function.

The end that connects to the TokenSpeed module is an RJ-45 connector. The connector at the other end can be another RJ-45 connector, a DB-9 connector, or an IBM Type 1 connector (see Figure B-2).
