RS-423 (TIA/EIA-423-B) Connector Pinout
From AllPinouts
Connector pinout for: RS-423 (TIA/EIA-423-B)
RS-423 is similar to TIA/EIA-232-F, but features a reduced driver output swing and higher data rates.
RS-423 is an electrical standard, specifying driver and receiver requirements only - there is no common pinout for this interface. Unbalanced driver and a balanced receiver defined. The receivers’ requirements are identical to specified in TIA/ EIA-422-B standard. TIA/EIA-423-B is intended to be referenced by complete standards, such as TIA/EIA-530-A. TIA/ EIA-423-B specifies a unidirectional, multidrop (up to ten receivers) interface. Advantages over TIA/EIA-232-F include: multiple receiver operation, faster data rates, and common power supplies (typically ±5V).
