3.3.4 EIA-530 Data Interface Connector
The Data connector is a 25-pin ‘D’ type female (DB-25F). This connector
conforms to the RS-530 pinout, which allows for connection of different
electrical standards, including EIA-422, V.35, and EIA-232.
IMPORTANT
All data interfaces are duplex! They will only operate as duplex if a Modulator
and Demodulator are vertically grouped together as a modem. In that case the
data interface connector on the Demodulator switches to duplex. This feature
allows a single data interface connection to be used for a modem instead of
needing a “Y” cable. Otherwise, the data interface for each module will only
operate as simplex.
It is the responsibility of the user to provide the appropriate cables to connect
to this EIA-530 connector.

Notes:
1. Receiver Ready is an RS-232 -level control signal on a V.35 interface.
2. DO NOT connect signals to pins which are not shown - these pins are reserved for use by the redundancy system.
3. ‘B’ signal lines are not used for RS-232 applications.
4. For X.21 operation, use the EIA-422 pins, but ignore RX Clock if the Modem is DTE, and ignore TX clocks if the
Modem is DCE.
