3.2.1.3 ‘J3 | Control A’ Connector (DB-9F, Modem ‘A’)
The ‘J3 | Control A’ (Modem ‘A’) control connector is a 9-pin Type ‘D’ female interface. Pins 2, 3,
and 4 carry signals looped through the switch module from Modem ‘B’ to Modem ‘A’, while pins 6,
7, and 8 loop the same signals from Modem ‘A’ through to Modem ‘B’. The +12 VDC input, which
is diode OR’ed with the corresponding +12 VDC input from Modem ‘B’, powers the switch module.
