For DTE to DCE connections, use a straight through cable (i.e., you don't
have to reverse lines 2 and 3, lines 4 and 5, and lines 6 and 20 since, in
general, the DCE RS-232 interfaces are reversed themselves).
Therefore, if you are not using CTS, RTS, DSR ,DTR and DCD signals,
please short pins 4 and 5 together, and please short pins 6, 8,and 20
together.
