The RocketPort interface box can only be used with the RocketPort 550-8 and
RocketPort 550-16 controllers. These controllers have a single DB25F mounted on the

backplate which connects via the RocketPort cable to the interface box.

The Mini, Octa, RJ11 and RJ45 Rocket Port versions do not support RS422 mode.
