Getting Started with MAXserver Access Servers

NOTES: In order to expand the functionality of the serial interface,
the MAXserver modular cabling allows you to connect
different signals to pin 7 of the MAXserver. (This pin is an
input to the MAXserver.) When a DCE device is connected
to a MAXserver serial port, the device's DCD output is
connected to pin 7. In this case, the signal at pin 7 is
referred to as DCD.
When a DTE device is connected to a MAXserver serial port,
the device's DTR output is connected to pin 7 of the
MAXserver. In this case, the signal at pin 7 is referred to as
DSR. (This cabling scheme also provides DECconnect
compatibility, since DECconnect does not support the DCD
signal.)
DEConnect RJ-45 Cables
DEConnect cables no longer available.
Figure 15 shows the DEConnect-compatible cables available from NBase-
Xyplex and shows how the cables are wired. The Male RJ-45 connector is
attached to the server. The MMJ connector attaches to the DEConnect-
compatible device (DTE). The cable is a crossover cable that uses the six
inner pins of the server port and makes the signals available at the MMJ
connector. The cable is constructed using standard six-wire cable.
