Cables

The cables listed below connect to the XE–700 SBC and provide industry-standard
interfaces. For ordering information see page 121.
COM PORT VTC-20F Cable. This cable connects to the 20-pin COM1/2 or
COM3/4 ports and provides two DB-9 female connectors. A VTC-20M provides
two DB-9 male connectors.
0.100-inch RS-422/485 Cable. This cable connects to the 5-pin header for RS-
422/485 on COM3 or COM4 and provides a standard DB-9 interface.
CMA-26 Ribbon Cable. Connects the 26-pin digital I/O port to an STB-26
Termination Board to provide access for field wiring.
2 mm VGA-12 Cable. Provides a standard 15-pin VGA interface.
44-pin to 40-pin IDE Cable. Converts the 44-pin IDE header to a 40-pin IDE
header.
PS/2 Keyboard Mouse Cable, 8-Pin Header. Connects to the
keyboard/mouse port to provide PS/2 keyboard interface. A "Y" cable, available
at any computer store, attaches to the Keyboard Mouse Cable and provides
mouse support.
ATX Power Cable. Connects to the 10-pin ATX power connector and provides
a standard 20-pin ATX connector.
Two-port USB Cable. Converts the 10-pin header for USB1,2 into two
standard USB connectors.
USB devices are hot-swappable when a device is plugged into a
standard USB connector, as pins on the connectors determine the
order in which they make contact. Devices are not hot-swappable
when connected to a non-standard header. You can hot swap a
device through the USB connector on the two port USB cable, or
through another USB connector wired to the 10-pin header, but you
cannot hot swap at the 10-pin header itself.
