- YAESU FT450, FT847, FT920, FT950, FT1000MP, FT2000, FT5000, and FT9000
You need female DB9 connector and a three conductor shielded cable. The wiring should be
as shown in Fig 7-7. If the same port of the transceiver is used for computer control, you can
use Y cable shown on Fig 7-2.

- YAESU FT-990, FT-1000, and FT-1000D You will need a 6-pin DIN connector, 3
wire shielded cable and a 10k pull-down resistor as shown on Fig 7-8.
- YAESU FT-817, FT-857 and FT-897 The cable is shown in Fig. 7-9. Besides the
serial interface wires, also the amplifier control lines are included in the same connector. This
makes possible using of a single cable between the transceiver and ACOM2000A as shown
on Fig. 7-9. The connector at the transceiver side is a Mini 8 pin DIN. You will also need a
5 wire shielded cable and a 10k pull-up resistor. In case of using this cable, you should not
connect separate cables to the KEY-IN and KEY-OUT sockets described in s.2-4 d,e.
