I'm sorry I cannot give you a better answer, but the issue you are having is 99.99% of the time the rsult of a mis-configured terminal emulator and/or having the wrong cable/adaptor pin-out. I've been cariying a couple cables with me for a few years now, these come with Fujitsu PrimePower servers, and are specially amde for console connections; I keep them because I know conencting to serial ports can be a problem, as you are experiencing.
Actually you were right, i've changed the cable (well, i changed it two times) and the console start responding.

DPIPE(1) General Commands Manual DPIPE(1)
NAME
dpipe - bi-directional pipe command
SYNOPSIS
dpipe [ command [ args ] ] = [ command [ args ] ]
dpipe [ command [ args ] ] = [ command [ args ] ] [ = [ command [ args ] ] ] ...
DESCRIPTION
dpipe is a general tool to run two commands diverting the standard output of the first command into the standard input of the second and
vice-versa. It is the bi-directional extension of the | (pipe) syntax used by all the shells. The = has been chosen as a metaphor of two
parallel communication lines between the commands. It is also possible to concatenate several tools. Intermediate programs communicate
using standard input and standard output with the preceding tool and alternate standard input and output (respectively file descriptors
number 3 and 4) towards the following tool. If an intermediate tool should process only the data flowing in one direction use { or } as
suffix for the preceding = and prefix of the following one.
This tool has been written as a tool for the Virtual Distributed Ethernet.
EXAMPLE
dpipe a = b
processes a and b are bidirectionally connected: stdin of a is connected to stdout of b and vice-versa
dpipe a = b = c
a and b are connected as above. Alternate stdin of b is connected to stdout of c and alternate stdout of b to stdin of c
dpipe a =} b }= c
This is a cycle of pipes: stdout of a is connected to stdin of b, stdout of b with stdin of c, and stdout of c to stdin of a
dpipe a =} b }={ c {= d = e
all the notations can be mixed together. this is a -> b -> d -> c and back to a; alternate ports of d are connected to e

no options.
