COM1/COM2 (

serial ports

) cables

Serial devices such as modems and printers use 25-pin D-type connectors for RS232
connections. In order to connect RS232 devices with 25-pin connectors, 9-pin connector signals
have to be converted to 25-pin connector signals. The diagram below shows their respective
connections.

This figure provides details of pin-connections of the Standard Centronics parallel cable. Some
manufacturers have changed pin-functions or polarity on their printers. For such printers, custom
cables may be necessary. For details, refer to your printer manual.
