10.5.1 Modular Connector - RJ-45

The ICD Tool uses an RJ-45 modular connector and cable to communicate with a target.

The modular connector pins are always numbered in the same order regardless of connector orientation.

* For information about connecting to an RJ-11 at the target, see Connecting an RJ-11 Type Cable to an RJ-45 Jack on the Debugger.

Pin numbering can be seen in the following diagram. Although the connectors are oriented differently on the tool and on the target, pin 1 is always pin 1 with relation to the connector.
