Cable Diagrams
Before using the following cable diagrams refer to the tables above to select the correct cable for your application.
Sometimes, crossover cables are wired slightly differently depending on the application. A “complete” crossover
cable would connect the TxD with RxD, DTR with DCD/DSR, and RTS with CTS across both sides. A “simplified”
crossover cable would cross TxD and RxD and locally short-circuit DTR with DCD/DSR and RTS with CTS.
