The pins marked with an asterisk (*) are required only for modem-control
or for flow-control, so you may ignore these pins when connecting a terminal.
For applications requiring DTR handshaking or for printers that use pin 11
for Printer Busy Signals, connect RJ-45 pin 1 (CTS) to DB25 pin 20 (for DTR)
or pin 11 (Printer Busy), respectively.
