Table B.2 – RS232 DTE to DTE connection with null-modem wiring
Note that the DB9-USB-RS232-M is not a DB9-USB-RS232-F with its pins latterly inverted; there is a
“null-modem” wiring configuration present in the DB9-USB-RS232-M module. This means that a DB9-
USB-RS232-M is not pin compatible with a female footprint when placed on the underneath side of the
board.
