Just a tid-bit of information here (useless though it may be) - the RS232 standard does specify a connector - and in fact it is the DB-25 connector. Other connector configurations may carry the RS-232 signal levels and signalling protocol, and can come in many different flavors. The one we seem to be most concerned with is the DB-9 (more properly a DE-9) connector which has become the de-facto 'standard' on IBM compatible PCs. The Apple world has used mini-din connectors for most everything (including RS-232 level signals) for a long time.
