Specifications for Modem & DCE Cable
VP-RJ-DB/M CABLE
A 6-foot (1.8 meter) shielded cable with a 10-pin RJ-45 plug at one
end and a Male DB-25 connector at the other end.
Modems, ISDN terminal adapters, and other DCE devices.
This cable is marked 2-20122 for identification purposes.
the chassis ground at one end of the cable but not at both
ends. This is because the "earth ground" connection
through the power source is not always perfect, and dif-
ferent "earth grounds" at different locations may have
a voltage potential between them. If you connect the two
devices together through the cable shield or chassis
ground pin, current will flow through the shield and
damage your hardware.
