Hey, based on what some folks were saying on list earlier in the month, I
grabbed a small quantity of RS/6000 cables, which I'm offering for my cost
($2) plus shipping.
FRU 74F3135
10-pin ("dual5") plug <-> miniDIN-8
I can't speculate as to what its original purpose might've been, but
perhaps some of you might find it useful for your older RS/6000s.
ok

ME Me Me, I want one or two!! I'm not sure what to do with the Din 8,
but hopefully this will help me in hooking up a console to my RS6000!!
It has these wierd serail ports, that should coonect with the 10-pin
side of these cables.
Anybody know of an easy way to go from Din 8 to a standard DB25 or
db9.... or maybe I could use a Mac as a console?

How long are they? Unless it's one of their famous 40lb, 25' serial
cables, I'll take one.

If I had to guess, wouldn't a 41t have a more standard d-sub style serial
connector?
The non--mini-DIN end of this cable has 10 pins on .100" centers (what
I've heard termed a 'BERG header') wrapped in a silly, rectangular,
plastic shroud.
Let me know if you still think that's what you want.

yep -- i just pulled it out of my to do pile and checked and it does
have a standard 25 pin serial port -- thanks for the tip -- i sometimes
jump on getting things that may turn up as rare later just incase i
might need them --and sometimes before checking -- someone else who
needs it is welcome to it -- thanks -- billp
