Hi Everyone,
I recently purchased a XTL5000 high power cabinet with a MHLN6901D W3 TIB. The TIB is configured similar to the Spectra cabinets with 2 - DB25 connectors, but it also has a GCAI connector on it. I usually program mid-power units using the 26 pin connector, but this is the first high power cabinet I have come across. Do I need to use the GCAI connector to program the radio or can I use a standard RIB to interface to the radio though a DB25 connector like the Spectras? I appreciate any insight you guys might have.
