See the specifications of the equipment that is to be connected for the type of connector and the pin assignment. 3) Wiring Use a crossed (reverse) cable. Wire the cable so that each pair of data lines cross between the two devices. These data line pairs are RXD (Receive data) and TXD (Transmit data), DTR (DTE side ready) and DSR (DCE side ready), and RTS (Ready to send) and
