A mate has lost his db9 to rj45 connector for box and they are like rocking horse cack - i got a cisco console lead but dont work - ive seen the ones you wire yourself but people have tried these - the prob is that there is a pcb board inside and a few have suggested this stores the activation of the box in but not sure about that - after all its just ethernet signal and the right config of pins should work? anyone got a knackered box and dont need their adaptor i would be most grateful.
