Features
A terminal device is connected to the 8400B Plus Data Module using a standard
Electronics Industries Association EIA-232-D Connector cord and, if needed,
the supplied M9/F25 Adapter. The M9/F25 Adapter converts a 25-pin interface
to a 9-pin interface, adhering to the Electronics Industries Association/
Telecommunications Industry Association EIA/TIA-574 standard. A Digital
Communications Protocol (DCP) interface (using a type D8W modular
telephone cord) is used to connect the 8400B Plus Data Module to the digital
PBX.

The 8400B Plus Data Module may be optioned for use either with or without a
telephone. In the stand-alone case, the 8400B Plus Data Module supports data
service only. Otherwise, the 8400B Plus Data Module provides simultaneous
data and voice service. The 8400B Plus Data Module works with all DCP voice
terminals that support two-wire operation (such as the 8400 series voice
terminals) to provide simultaneous data and voice service.
