We always use crimp pin connectors for rs232. That makes it easy to do
custom pinouts (including "null-modem"). You can still get wires with
crimp pins pre-installed also - although using a crimp tool is easy
enough.

Yes, I have an APC too, APC pin out is weird non standard, I soldered
up my own special cable adapter years back if he (gru...@mailfence.com
cc'd) just connected some serial adapter to APC, that would Not
work, & might be cause of his shutdown,
gru...@mailfence.com should first make up an adapter with a male &
female, to adapt from APC to standard, that can then be added to
whatever else is used/ tried beyond.
