Wow, why not? Does your employer make a habit of spending three times as
much as necessary? :-) Just kidding...
If that's the case, then go with the part numbers I gave you. For the sake
of performance you'll want to go with the v.35 cables.

| a back to back cable?
|
| Hmm... while writing that I just thought of one good reason. Whenever
| I order a back-to-back cable I usually get an RS-232 cable. This would
| tend to limit the clock rate between the two routers. If I needed a
| higher speed I'd have to find a V.35 back to back cable which seem to be
| harder to find.
|
| If you want V.35:
|
| CAB-V35MT=
| CAB-V35FC=
|
| If you want RS-232:
|
| CAB-232MT=
| CAB-232FC=

|
| There are two bona fide Cisco cables which
| can be hooked together to make one back
| to back cable (at three times the price
| of a back to back). Anybody know the
| part numbers of the Cisco cables? It's
| for back to back on the WAN ports.
