Preparing to Install the 9560

You can connect a computer directly to the 9560 modem connector. If the
connector on the computer is a plug (not a socket), then use a socket/socket
adapter cable, such as Intermec Part No. 035009S. The 9560 modem connector
is wired as a Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) device.
