    You can use any console cable that comes with any HP ProCurve switch, if some netadmin you know has and is willing to help you.

    The cable is a standard DB9(F) - DB9(F) nullmodem so you can buy a cheap one from your local datastore.

    Null-modem cables is a cable connecting following pins:

    1---7
    7---1
    2---3
    3---2
    4-6,8
    6,8-4
    5---5
    G---G
