A few
months ago, I bought a synchronous serial modem from one of the list
members. A Penril Alliance v.32 box, with a normal-looking DB-25 RS-232
connector on the back, marked "DTE". The manual says the modem is
connected to the DTE device to the DTE connection.
I now
want to hook it up to one of my 2500s, and I need to know whether to get a DTE
(CAB-232MT) or DCE (CAB-232MC) cable. I am guessing that, since the router
is the DTE, and modems are usually DCE devices, that I need the "Router to RS232
DCE" cable. But I'd like a second opinion, hopefully from someone who
bought a modem like mine, and got it working in their lab.
