A.4 The X.21 Interface
Here is the ITU-T X.21 pinout for the FradSwitch A/S 3 Port’s X.21 main-link-
ports, both unadapted (pinned out as per RS-530 on DB25) and patched with
adapter cable (pinned out on standard DB15).

*The E A and E B signals are not included in the standard X.21 interface. On the Switch, these
signals (which provide the external clocking option that X.21 otherwise lacks) are substituted for
the Byte Timing (B A and B B) signals, which are rarely if ever used.
A.5 The DDS Interface
Here is the pinout for the DDS main-link port (Port 1, the modular RJ-48 socket)
on “-DDS” models of the FradSwitch A/S 3 Port. All unlisted pins are unused.
