Yaesu FT-857 and 897 remote operation?

 

There is an undocumented control pathway for the FT-857 and FT-897. The radio can be controlled by command signals received through the microphone jack once the menu 59 setting for the microphone is set to CAT.  This may be useful to people devising mobile control settings for the FT-857. There are several schemes posted on line for making use of the microphone jack in a variety of ways to receive serial commands to control various functions of the radio.

Can ordinary STP CAT-6a cable be just plugged in to the RJ-45 jack?

Yes, as long as it is wired straight thru,
