Old Serial / Printer Cable

[Waaib]

Where can I find one of those old 9 pin to 25 (+/-) pin printer serial cables in CPT area?

I need one to connect a small UPS to a fairly old laptop. I've tried the usual PC's shops in malls and none seem to have.

If the UPS is an APC, you need to obtain a special APC cable, a standard serial cable won't work.

if all else fails you can always make your own, there is allot of websites with the pin-outs (jfgi) and you can buy the connectors from yebo electronics in Boston.

Back in the day I've made a few null modem cables and parallel laplink cables.
