Get one or more modular kits like the one below:
http://www.cablesnmor.com/modular-kit-db9f-rj45.aspx
Now wire it according to the pinouts here:
http://yost.com/computers/RJ45-serial/index.html
If (in the unlikely event) you have any more RS-232 devices,
you can attach a similar db{9,25}{f,m}-rj45 adapter to each
-- just make sure that on the RJ-45 side signals come out as
specified in the web page above (also reproduced below).
Now you can use a "half-twist" 8 conductor cable to connect
*any* two such devices. You can even use a 4 or 6 conductor
half-twist cable with the same RJ-45 jacks since the layout
is such that the more important signals are towards the
middle.
