:I don't understand why the cable-sizes are different, for sending or
receiving!
:Isn't it all in the same cable?
Actually, both cables (both send/recv) should be the same size. Reason for
that is that a different length is of no use, for you can't connect send to
recv and vice versa for the connectors are different (male/female).
In addition, when having different-size cables to the DIN-connectors you can
get unhandy situations like that the one cable is shorter than the other.
