Or buy an adapter at radio shack...Gender changers.

Better still, make yourself a universal gender-changer/extension-cable. Buy two male DB9 connectors for ribbon cable, and two female, then squeeze them onto a foot of 9-way ribbon cable like this:

M==F======================M==F

Take great care about the polarity and orientation of the connectors - they must follow "pin 1 to pin1" all the way.

It's a very handy thing to have around the shack.
