need AIX console cable

Hello ... I am newbie and will be very grateful for any help. I need a serial console cable for my AIX boxes (seems we have lost the one we had!). However I am confused about the one one to order - UK based if possible. I wonder if anyone can point me at a specific one or the exact spec i need to get?

many thanks!

edit by bakunin: Please post original questions in your own thread instead of hijacking someone elses who has a different question answered. Secondly, if you whould have read the thread you have posted to before i moved your post here you would already know which cable to use. You can buy a crossed-out serial cable (aka "Null-Modem-cable") in every electronics shop.

LIEBERT(8)							    NUT Manual								LIEBERT(8)

NAME
liebert - Driver for Liebert contact-closure UPS equipment NOTE
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the liebert driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8). SUPPORTED HARDWARE
This driver supports some Liebert UPS equipment with a contact-closure interface. This includes the UPStation GXT2 with their contact-closure cable. The smart mode ("Multilink") cable is not supported by this driver. EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver does not support any extra settings in the ups.conf(5). BUGS
This driver does not yet support shutdowns by raising DTR. Be aware that shutdowns are not possible with the stock contact-closure cable. You may have to build another cable with DTR connected through to the UPS for it to work. There is no way for this driver to detect the hardware or cable. It will start up successfully even if no UPS is present. This is a fundamental limitation of any contact-closure driver. SEE ALSO
