Customer Reviews

Flexible and works on everything -IT Tech dream
There are many, many different items I need to configure or load software into doing the job I do....a lot of it via a serial cable to a dock or console port.

But not all null modem cables are created equal I found out the hard way a long time ago.

Most newer items are fine with a simple 3-wire cable that crosses over only pins 2-3 (xmt-rcv) and passes ground.

But many things require a full 5-wire that passes through the other signals as well....a 3-wire fails in these scenarios.

This cable here is a full 5-wire...with both 25 and 9 pin connectors on EACH side.

I also attached 9 and 25 Belkin Male-Male Gender changers....so this cable literally connects to everything and gets my job done without lugging around a bunch of different cables.

If you are an unlucky tech like me who has to interface with items the old fashioned serial way on a regular basis....this cable will find a permanent home in your already full laptop case!

Versatile product for use with older components
