I use the APMUX port (the only one on the E55 I/O board), with the cable ref
A1703-63009. At one end with high-density connector for APMUX and at the ot=
her
ends one DB9 called MDP and something like big centronics called DDP (for t=
he
patch panel i don't own). So i try the MDP port without result.

Thanks
