Serial Port Pinout
The iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II features a serial port that uses an IBM-compatible DB-9
serial connector. To connect an iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX to your workstation, use a
straight-through (pin-to-pin) cable.
If your workstation has a serial port using a connection not compatible with a DB-9
COM port, use the pin connection chart for reference in making a cable.
Ensure the cable length is less than 50 ft. (15.24 m). Plug one end of the cable into
the DB-9 connector on the iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX and the other into the appropriate
port on your workstation.
Set your workstation for VT-100 emulation. The serial port on the workstation should
be set for:
