Connection
Using an
External Power
Brick
A special dongle cable is used, where one end of the cable plugs into the
P400 while the other end terminates in a DB-9 connector housing. On the
housing, a DC jack is provided to connect to an external power brick. This is
a generic cable for all RS232-based hosts (VPN - CBL282-031-XX-A).

Similarly, a USB cable (VPN - CBL282-038-XX-A) is required in standard
USB environments. For this cable option, the host end has a molded
housing which exposes the standard USB plug.
