Hugh,
If you're thinking of making up a cable, try looking at the following:

Article number 12929, "Duo Dock/Duo Dock II External Pinouts"
http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n12928
Article number 12928, "Powerbook Duo 210, 230, 250, 270c: External Pinouts"
http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n10851

Assignments"

Article number 12930, "Duo MiniDock: External Pinouts"
http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n11747
Article number 11747, "Express modem: Hayes AT Command Set"
I'm not a hardware expert, so I don't know whether these would be of a great
help,
but my limited knowledge makes me think they might be useful.
Obviously the best solution would be for someone on the list who has the
elusive DAA to open it up and tell the rest of us what's inside (slugs and
snails
and puppy dog tails?)

-----Excerpt from original message-----
So now I need to make up a connector with a mini-DIN plug on one end,
and a BT plug on the other. I'm sure there's a name for the BT plug
(it's about the same size as an RJ-45 but has the latch on the side).
When I have some time (it's the summer Hugh, you have the time!) I'll
make up a cable and try David's elicitation of wire matching1 (What
*is* the combinatrial expansion of 4 (BT plug) and 8 (mini-DIN plug)?)
