Cable
The BN25G is a four twisted-pair cable with standard 8-
Pin modular plugs.
H8575-A
(EIA 423-B to
EIA-232-D) Adapter
Use this adapter and the BN24H cable to connect to 25-
Pin D-sub plug connectors (for example: printers).
H8575-D (E1A423-B to EIA-
232-D) Adapter

Pin D-sub socket connectors.
H8585-AA
8-Pin MJ to DB9
Null-Modem Adapter
The H8585-AA 8-Pin MJ to DB9 (socket) null-modem
adapter is used to convert the serial port to a DB9 socket
connector for asynchronous connection to a PC port.
H8585-AB
8-Pin MJ to DB25
Modem Adapter
The H8585-AB 8-Pin MJ to DB25 (plug) low-speed
modem adapter is used to convert a serial port to the DB25
configuration. Used for older styles of modems.
H8585-AC
8-Pin MJ to DB25
Modem Adapter
The H8585-AC 8-Pin MJ to DB25 (plug) high-speed
modem adapter is used to convert a serial port to the DB25
configuration.
H8585-AF
Console Port Adapter, 9-Pin "D"
subminiature plug to 8-Pin MJ.
Requires use of a BN25G-xx
cable.
The universal adapter connects the DECserver ports to any
