Applications such as SLIP and PPP using high speed modems
Applications using CCITT V.42-compliant modems, or other devices
operating at high port speeds.
Figure 21 illustrates a wiring diagram that shows the needed cabling
to connect an access server serial port to a modem for most standard
applications (i.e., those which do not require RTS/CTS hardware flow
control). Figure 22 shows the wiring for applications which require
RTS/CTS flow control. You can purchase modular cables and
adapters shown in the figure from NBase-Xyplex, or make your own
cables based on the wiring diagram.
