The CB 1241 provides internal resistors for terminating and biasing the network. To
terminate and bias the connection, connect TRA to TA and connect TRB to TB to include the
internal resistors to the circuit. CB 1241 does not have a 9-pin connector. The following table
shows the connections to a 9-pin connector on the communications partner.
