question about serial cable

jelexy

hi all,


I now have two cisco 2620 router (both don't have serial interface). I am planning to buy (from ebay) two wic-1T serial interface, but I'm not sure what kind of serial cable I need!!! to connect both routers!

do i need DTE and DCE X.21 cable ?

thanks for your time

For the purposes of a home lab, you need

DB60 to V.35 (34 pin Winchester-type connector). The DB60 male is a standard for Cisco serial ports. You just need to make sure you get two cables that one is v.35 (male) and the other v.35(female) so that you can connect them back to back. Also make sure one is DTE and the other is DCE so that you can get one router to do the clocking.

I buy cables from anthonypanda.com Pretty cheap prices and fast delivery.
