The octal cable is already a ROLLOVER cable, *not* a crossover cable. There is an important difference and quite often people mix the terms on accident. If you would normally need a rollover cable to connect to that particular console port then simply connect the octal cable and you're good to go. If you need a straight cable for some reason then you will need an adapter to roll the cable again.
