Cables

Does anybody know a site or seller on ebay perhaps that sells cheap cables? I bought a Wic-2T a while back and ended up with 2 sets of cables. I have 4 DB-60 DTE / SS DCE. I was wondering if anybody knew a seller that sold the DB-60 DCE version of this cable for less then this:

The normal DB-60 back to back's as im sure everybody knows, are half that cost...this Wic-2t is becoming more trouble then its worth. I thought i had bought a set with DB-60 DTE and a set with DB-60 DCE but there was an error with the auction and the pic was wrong

$15 isn't so bad. I figure hey, how many serial cables do you actually need? I typically factor about 10% of the value of my rack for cabling, bracketry, and a spare PS or two so $15 for a DCE/DTE cable falls within the range I'd be willing to pay

Well when you make the money I do, you need to get things for as cheap as possible, but i supose your right, i found some sites charging like 40 dollers for the same cable.

Not sure if he has what you need but what he has he sells for cheap.

$15 dollars has been the de facto standard from what I've seen, and purchased.


Of course, you could sell your cables, then purchase a crossover
version for the same price:
