Serial Connection Signals and Pinouts
EIA/TIA-232 Connections
EIA/TIA-232 supports unbalanced circuits at signal speeds up to 64 kbps. The network end of the
adapter cable is a standard 25-pin D-shell connector known as a DB-25. (See
console and auxiliary ports also use EIA/TIA-232 connections; however, the serial module ports support
synchronous connections, and the console and auxiliary ports support asynchronous connections.
