A.4 CBL-VMUX-MM-MODEM Cross Cable

When connecting the Vmux-2100 CONTROL port to an ASCII terminal via a modem link, you must use the CBL-VMUX-MM-MODEM cross cable, which can be ordered from RAD.

CBL-VMUX-MM-MODEM cross cable includes two male DB-9 connectors, designated MODEM and VMUX. Figure A-2illustrates the cross cable. Table A-4describes the cross cable wiring.
