Null-Modem Cables
Null-Modem cables are also often known as Crossover Cables can be used in place of a pair of synchronous modems or a modem eliminator provided a device at one end of the link can generate clocks. Another way to describing them is that they convert the interface presentation from DTE to DCE. They are compatible with all our current products which feature RS232, RS530 or X.21 network interfaces.
