Unfortunately, the rest of the databook doesn't give any detail about this support, in fact I can't find anything about differences between the 848A and 849A anywhere other than the introduction (there's lots of info about differences between the original 848 and the 848A/849A, but not between 848A and 849A). Maybe there is a later edition of the databook?
