- The easiest solution, if you don't need status lines, is...
- Trans 2 --> 3 Receive
- Recv 3 <-- 2 Transmit
- Gnd 7 --- 7 Gnd
-
- If you want to tie the status lines high on each end, and
- not use any more wires in the cable... Do the same as above
- and then on each end connect
- DTR (term ready) 20 --> 6 Carrier detect DCD
- & 8 Dataset ready DSR
-
- RTS (req to snd) 4 --> 5 Clr to send CTS
- These connections are within the connector on BOTH ends,
- and do not go end-to-end.
-
-
- If you want to actually pass the status lines end-to-end,
- do the same but from one end to the other, like so
-
- 2 --> 3 TX RX
- 3 <-- 2 RX TX
- 7 --- 7 G G
- 20 --> 6 & 8 DTR - DCD & DSR
- 6 & 8 <-- 20 DCD & DSR - DTR
- 4 --> 5 RTS CTS
- 5 <-- 4 CTS RTS
-
- This is how most commercial null modem cables are made.

- and isn't needed for this.
