The SEC is connected to a Microlok II RS-232 Comm port using a customer-supplied standard
DB-9 connector which is connected to the Serial Connection port on the front panel of the SEC.
The serial cable on the Microlok II end must have RTS (Request to Send) and DCD (Data
Carrier Detect) jumpered together (see Table 3-1) (Refer to the Microlok II manuals The SEC's

Selecting the Ethernet Cable
12B
The Ethernet port is a standard eight-pin RJ45 connector which uses any of the widely
available Category 5 (CAT5) or better cable (standard off-the-shelf cable). An Ethernet
crossover cable is required to connect the SEC directly to a PC and a standard Ethernet cable
is used to connect the SEC to the network.
