okay, im wanting to link some older pcs together to make 'one' via the parallel ports. ive read that the parallel connections are theoretically more efficient than the serial connections, so thats what im going to do. ive bought several 25-position male d-sub connectors, but now i need to know the correct way to wire them. anyone know how to wire them? pin-2-pin?
You will probably need them in rs232 configuration Computer Hardware PC Interface RS232 RS485 RS422 Serial Com port Parallel USB to Serial
