Null-Modem Cables
These cables which 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. The FarSync T2P, FarSync T4P, FarSync T2U and X.PORT PC2 can all generate clocks for X.21 and RS232C connections. The FarSync H2P and H4P can also generate clocks however a different Null-Modem cables is required as the clocks are generated on different pins. Click on the links in the table for the cable wiring and pin outs.
