XBEE CTS & RTS Connections &

I’m making a PCB with an STM32 and a XBEE. I’m not positive if I connect the XBEE CTS & RTS pins directly the the STM32 UART CTS & RTS pins, or if they need to be crossed due to different points of view.

Also, since I will NOT be using a level converter (i.e. max3232) there shouldn’t be a problem with the polarity of the TX & RX logic signals?

Thanks,

Todd
