Looking to buy this celestron RS-232 port cable for nexstar series scope. Thanks!

ITEM FOUND

Still looking for this cable.. :?

Why don't you make one, if you know pin layout, then just buy the parts from SL Tower and build you own.

Astroscientific is selling. About $45

I made one, not difficult. You just need a DB9 connector,a RJ plug and some wire.

Note, the sample pic shows a DB9 to a RJ socket, you need a RJ cable to use it :

if I got the time this sat, I might be making a trip down to Sim Lim Towers to get the parts to make one.

If shield cable is not need (the link pic is not using a shield cable), a phone cable with 4 wires type will do (from wall socket to phone), don't get the version with 2 wires. The connectors for the phone cable are RJ11.

Cut one of the end and solder the 3 wires accordingly to the female RS232 connector. It should be a 10 mins job if you are OK with soldering and the price should be within $5/-.

Thanks guys for the link & info, I'll need to make one since buying one will be too expensive, will need to go down sim lim to get the parts/wires.

yanyewkay.. sent u a pm. Thanks.
