Remote Connector and Pinouts (J6)
The remote connector is a 9-pin female D connector (J6) located on the rear panel of the
modem. Screw locks are provided for mechanical security of the mating connector.
The remote connector interfaces the M&C functions to a remote location. The remote
location can be an M&C computer located away from the modem, but attached via cable to
the remote connector. This is a DCE interface that is user selectable for either EIA-485 or
EIA-232. Refer to Appendix B for a description of the remote interface.
Refer to Table 2-2 for pinout information.
