I had to make my own. its pretty easy to do once you source all the parts (which can be purchased at any good electronic store). made mine for less than 5 dollars.
Mr. Fix,
Did you have any problems with the pin-outs for the modem?
Steven
I describe the pinout to make it yourself here:

Thanks for the pinouts, but don't they show a null modem cable? I am trying to a straight forward serial cable, one that I would connect to a modem, or in my case a Terminal Node Connector, a radio modem.
Wouldn't a MiniDin8 Male to DB25 Male Mac Modem Cable work on a GS?
Sorry, yes - going directly to a modem or similar, you don't need null-ness. So yes, a MiniDIN8 to DB25 Mac Modem cable is exactly what you need. I see one on Amazon:

I found some, too.
Thanks very much.
