Modular Adapters (RJ-45 to DB-25)
You can obtain adapters with male and female DB-25 connectors from
NBase-Xyplex. These adapters direct signals from the RJ-45 connector on
the cable to the correct pin on the DB-25 connector. Figure 13 and Figure 14
show how devices are cabled when you use these adapters.
Using Existing MAXserver 1000-series Cabling
The adapters shown in Figure 13 and are designed for use with all
MAXserver units. If you have existing MAXserver 1000-series cabling at
your site, the cabling can be used to connect MAXserver ports to DTE
devices -- provided you do not need to turn on RTS/CTS flow control at the
ports. If you plan to connect the unit to a DCE device, you should use one of
the adapters shown in Figure 14.
