    Yes, it makes perfect sense.  He probably wants RJE.  Your average RS-232
interface won't cut it for synchronous protocols.  Worse, he might need NRZI
encoding on top of that.  Various vendors (like HP :->) provide RJE and SNA
offerings for some of their systems; give your vendor a call and find out.
