These adapters direct signals from the RJ-45 connector onthe cable to the correct pin on the DB-25 connector. Figure 13 and Figure 14show how devices are cabled when you use these adapters.Using Existing MAXserver 1000-series CablingThe adapters shown in Figure 13 and are designed for use with allMAXserver units.
