#505 cable

I found the easiest and cheapest solution was to make one.

All you need is a standard telecom 4 wire cable with the modular plug,( check that they have 4 shining wire connectors in the plug, some only have two!) a female D9 connector and body.

The above reference gives the correct wiring. Cut one modular end of the telecom cable and bare the wires.

Looking at the end of the modular plug with the locking tab at the bottom , number the wires 1 thru 4 from the LHS, then 1 goes to 3 on the BD9, 2 to 2 and 4 to 5 on the DB9...... that's it.
Mine worked first time. Cost about $3.50
If needed I can scan the above reference and email to you.
