If you need to connect your Xstream to a modem, use a "null modem" adapter such as Radio 
Shack #26‐1496 (25 pin to 25 pin) or #26‐264 (9 pin to 9 pin).

CURIOSITY NOTE!

The DB- designation for D-Sub connectors is from Cinch Corp’s part numbering system. The
proper Cinch designation for a 9-pin D-Sub connector is a DE-9p (plug) or DE-9s (socket) not
DB-9!

Other Cinch designations for D-Sub connectors are; DA-15, DB-25, DC-37 and DD-50.
