AIX Versions 3.2 and 4 Asynchronous Communications Guide

Appendix F: 7318 General Specifications

Mainboard

CPU: 16 MHz Intel 960 RISC
Memory: 1 MB or 2 MB

Serial Interface

Number of ports: 16
Electrical std: RS-423A (EIA 232, EIA 422 compatible)
Data rates: 50 bps - 115 Kbps asynchronous
Signals: TD, TD REF, RD, RD REF, DCD, DTR, RTS, CTS
Connectors: Modular RJ-45 (ISO 8877)
Notes:
  1. EIA EIA 232 Interoperability: Each asynchronous port is compatible with EIA EIA 232D; however pin 5 and pin 7 must be tied together. The IBM terminal adapter (Feature Code 7903) and the IBM modem adapter (Feature Code 7904) provide this connection internally. It is recommended that this be done at the device end of the cable.
  2. EIA EIA 422 Interoperability: Asynchronous ports are interoperable with EIA EIA 422 devices utilizing the Transmitted Data and Received Data signals only. This is accomplished by using signal pins 4 and 5 as the balanced Received Data pair and pins 7 and 8 as the balanced Transmitted Data pair. If more than the odd-numbered ports are used for EIA 422, a 100-ohm current-limiting resistor must be placed in series at the device end of the cable on the TD signal.
