circuit-terminating equipment (DCE). Different cables are required to support different
protocol and the protocols are identified using the cable ID. The cables are labeled with
a letter (refers to the cable type) and 4 digits (unique serial numbers for the cables).
Table 91 on page 162 lists the cables supported by 8-Port Serial GPIMs. You can order the
cables from Juniper Networks to connect to a port on the synchronous 8-Port Serial
GPIM. The device to which you are connecting and the serial interface types determine
which type of cable you need.

Figure 39 on page 163 shows the cables with name A and B at the serial connector end.
Label A refers to port 0, port 2, port 4, or port 6 and label B refers to port 1, port 3, port 5,
or port 7 depending on which port the cable is connected.
