- TXD and RXD are defined based on signal stream direction on the router, and the corresponding wires must be connected to the RXD and TXD wires on the remote device (computer).
- A console cable does not have an RTS, CTS, DSR, or DTR signal wire, and therefore does not support hardware-based flow control.
- Pins not listed in the table are not connected.
