I assume you have standard RS-232 25 pin D-type connectors on both ends. Otherwise you'll have to translate the wire list for your own connectors. 1 - 1 2 - 3 3 - 2 4 - 5 5 - 4 6,8 - 20 7 - 7 20 - 6,8 Basically, this crosses data transmit and receive, CTS/RTS, DSR/DTR, and gives you a carrier detect indication as well.
