The one that I had was. But there might be a jumper for current loop.

I no longer have access to one, nor the manuals.
But I MIGHT still have some RS232 cables for it.
The one that I had, the loopback connected the RS232 compatible terminal
with the RS232 compatible modem. There was a jumper inside that
eliminated the need for the loopback plug, but I used it as a printer, and
used the modem with a TRS-80. That required some special cables to bring
the terminal signals and the modem signals out to DB25s.
