Is the cable you are using a null modem cable or a modem cable

Hi all,

Is there any difference between a null modem cable or a modem cable ?
i assume that a null modem cable is a normal cable that i used from cpu serial ports to a modem for dialup.
please correct if i am wrong,

thks

No they are not the same a null-modem is a serial crossover cable, a modem cable is a straight serial cable.
