Mine appear to multiply every time I use them. I think I have more than 10 at this point. My RS232 is happily married to one of them… At least, I think they’re happy.
I carry a bunch of loose connectors in my Pelicase O’Spares - I mostly work with RS422, so I can solder any length I need to achieve less rack spaghetti.
My pelicase has a redicilous assortment of various things I might need, accumulated over a long period of time. Netqork cards, SFP transceivers, and a bunch of other stuff. There’s also a Cisco router and three beers. The last two items are normally not there, but they were leftovers after wrapping up my work trip yesterday, so I took them with me.
9600, 8-N-1
Com port settings?
ya
If internal, don’t forget whether to use 3F8, 2F8, 3E8, or 2E8 and an unused IRQ. Any questions? Hit me up on ICQ
Uh Oh!
In my line of work I still do that. Not for modems, though. Usually for receiving serial data from gyros and gps.
Same.
Using a nice blue cable that says “Cisco” on the connector.
I have something similar. DE9-RJ45 for talking to switches.
Hello fellow Cisco blue cable user.

For me it’s displays and audio systems, but I do use RS232 on a daily basis.
Yesterday I had to manually make a null modem cable cause I lost my final little orange dongle.
