RE: Framesaver CSU Cable Question ? [7:31427]

2002-01-09 Thread Ole Drews Jensen

I am not an expert in your CSU, but you want to be absolute sure about what
the 25 pin interface on it is. It could be either RS-323 or RS-530, and the
two cables are not wired the same.

Hth,

Subject: Framesaver CSU Cable Question ? [7:31427]


I just picked up a Paradyne 9120 Framsaver CSU and while researching
the cable I need to connect to a router I came across a possible
alternate cable I wasn't aware of.

The CSU came with a v.35 adapter (I was actually expecting a
pigtail) but the adapter will work just fine, so I know that 
the CAB-V35MT MALE DTE V35 10 FT cable is the one I would 
normally use with the adapter.

What I wasn't aware of is the CAB-530MT MALE DTE RS-530 10 FT cable
which appears to allow me to connect directly to the CSU's 25 pin
Port#1 or Port#2 connection and forego the v.35 adapter!

Can anyone confirm my suspicions that the CAB-530MT will work for
this application? The way I figure, the more pieces I can eliminate,
the easier it becomes to troubleshoot if problems arise!

Ole

I have the pdf Technical reference document from Paradyne's website
available and it indicates that the interface is a EIA-530a.

From the tech reference:

EIA-530A Port 1 or 2 Interface Cable
The following table shows the EIA-530A circuit and pin assignments that are
supported for a port connector/interface ( Port 1 or Port 2).

I'm making the assumption that EIA-530 and RS-530 are one in the
same...but you know what happens when one assumes :-)

Anyway I'm relatively sure that the CAB-530MT cable will work, but
I was hoping for solid confirmation from someone out there actually
using the CAB-530MT in lieu of the CAB-V35MT/Adapter or pigtail
cable, either in a lab environment or in production.

BTW: RS-323 ??? Is that a RS-232 mistype!
