  • Page 15: Serial Interface Specifications

    Chapter 1 Overview Serial Interface Specifications The resistance to convert to EIA/TIA-449 was due primarily to the large installed base of DB-25 hardware and to the larger size of the 37-pin EIA/TIA-449 connectors, which limited the number of connections possible (fewer than is possible with the smaller, 25-pin EIA/TIA-232 connector). EIA-530, which supports balanced transmission, provides the increased functionality, speed, and distance of EIA/TIA-449 on the smaller, DB-25 connector used for EIA/TIA-232.
