Introduction
This document provides the technical and cable specifications for the EIA/TIA−449 serial cables.
Prerequisites
Requirements
There are no specific requirements for this document.
Components Used
This document is not restricted to specific software and hardware versions.
The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the
devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure
that you understand the potential impact of any command.
Conventions
For more information on document conventions, see the Cisco Technical Tips Conventions.
EIA/TIA−449 Speed and Distance Limitations
The use of balanced drivers allows EIA/TIA−449 signals to travel greater distances than the EIA/TIA−232
standard. The table below lists the standard relationship between baud rate and maximum distance for
EIA/TIA−449 signals. These limits are also valid for V.35 and X.21.
Data Rate (Baud)
2400
Distance (Feet) Distance (Meters)
4,100 1,250
4800
9600
19200
38400
56000
T1
Caution: The EIA/TIA−449 and V.35 interfaces support data rates up to 2.048 Mbps. Exceeding this
maximum could result in loss of data and is not recommended.

Serial Cable CAB−449MT
This section presents the cable assembly and pinouts for the CAB−449MT serial cable.
Note: The cable itself identifies the Cisco router as a data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications
equipment (DCE) device to other devices in the network; for this reason, it is important to select the correct
product number from the table below.
The cable gender for this product (part number 72−0795−01) is Male DB−60 to Male DB−37, mode − DTE.
The CAB−449MT cable is used in the Cisco 7000 family, Cisco 4000 series, Cisco 3600 series, Cisco 2500
series, Cisco 1600 series, Cisco access servers, and AccessPro PC cards. This cable has a male DB−60
connector on the Cisco end and a male DB−37 connector on the network end.
