2.2.2 Wiring
A standard 0.9m USB “A” to “miniB” cable is provided.
Insert the A-plug into an available USB Host or Hub port. Insert the miniB-plug into the miniB-receptacle
on the USB2-H-1004.
RS232 cables have followed a standard 9-pin configuration on a D-sub connector since the mid 1980s.
The USB2-H-1004 follows this standard as a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) device. If the RS232
equipment being connected is a Data Communication Equipment (DCE) device, it’s typical that a straight-
through cable can be used.

Table 2.1 – RS232 DTE to DCE connection with straight-through cable
If the USB2-H-1004 is connected to another DTE device, a serial “null-modem” cable is required. A null-
modem handles connecting output signals to the corresponding input signals on the other end. Table 2.2
shows a typical null-modem cable. Note that RI and DCD are not always used.

Some serial devices may require certain handshake signals be connected. Refer to your device manual
for cabling details.
