NETLIST NOTES
L-1 L-4 L-6 DB9 LOOPBACK CONNECTOR
L-2 L-3 A loopback connector usually consists of a
L-7 L-8 connector without a cable and includes
internal wiring to reroute signals back to the
sender. This DB9 female connector would
attach to a DTE device such as a personal
computer. When the computer receives data, it
will not know whether the signals it receives
come from a remote DCE device set to echo
characters, or from a loopback connector. Use
loopback connectors to confirm proper
operation of the computer's serial port. Once
confirmed, insert the serial cable you plan to
use and attach the loopback to the end of the
serial cable to verify the cable.
