The remote connector is a 9-pin subminiature female D connector (J6) located on the rear

connector.
The remote connector interfaces the M&C functions to a remote location. The remote
location can be an M&C computer located away from the modem, but attached via cable to
the remote connector. This DCE interface is user selectable for either EIA-232 or EIA-484.
