I believe that the DB25 is only used on the tabletop version, which has
the usual rack-mount RX01/RX02 mounted inside a nice tabletop box.
Inside the box the ribbon cable coming from the RX01/RX02 boards
connects to an adapter that converts it to a DB25 connector.
I have a tabletop RX01, but I removed it from the tabletop case and
mounted it in an H960 rack.
