Lab build: where to buy DCE/DTE cables?

Hi all,

i'm in the process of building a lab, I already own several 2500/2600/3600 series routers with serial interfaces, but I need some DCE/DTE DB60 crossover cables.

Where can I find these? (I prefer European shops to avoid customs expenses)

Thanks in advance

I bought mine off eBay in the UK.

I bought from these guys on eBay. The cables worked perfectly and I didn't pay anything in shipping.

/agree Ebay.

Make sure you order the right end conectors. DB15/DB60/smart serial ... DTE/DCE
They are usually not the thick Cisco serial cables but they do the job.

Arrive in a couple of days.

I got mine from ebay too!

I bought 4 DB60s from ebay and have served me well for over 2 years now.

Try Monoprice. They have them. Great deals, too. They have an eBay store, too, which have a little bit better pricing than most.

Has anyone tried Dantrak-UK recently?

They seem to be UK based, i've sent an e-mail 2 days ago but haven't got any answer yet.

I've bought cables from their eBay store and was happy each time I dealt with them. I wanted several DB60-SS cables and they put more up when I asked. They're the UK reseller of the Skeletek rack kit as well.
