Note: These assignments meet EIA/TIA/ANSI-574 DTE for DB-9 type connectors.
Technical Note
: Please terminate any control signals that are not going to be used. The most common way to do this is connect RTS to
CTS and RI. Also, connect DCD to DTR and DSR. Terminating these pins, if not used, will help insure you get the best performance from
your adapter.
