RS232 Cable.

The simple three wire cable shown above is the most common for this type of control and is compatible with the xOn/xOff (DC1/DC3) flow control suggested on this page.

If you intend using RTS/CTS flow control then an alternative cable shown here is compatible with both xOn/xOff and RTS/CTS.
