Re: Anyone know about Serial Y cables? I've seen, I think, at least a half dozen variants for null modem cables, depending on how the control lines were connected to the other side, connected together (looped back), or not connected at all. 
As before, you need to figure out what your device uses, and whether it needs a straight, or a null modem cable.

It needs a null modem cable if you are not using a splitter to connect to the pc if you use the splitter cable the null modem is built in..
However speaking to someone else he says two null modem cables = a straight cable.. but like you said a few kinds of null cable are around.
