A datacenter manager at Networld+Interop this week showed me one of the coolest little road warrior cable kits I've ever seen. He built it himself from off-the-shelf components, following instructions posted online by Michael Ossmann, a security administrator for Exempla Healthcare. The kit is ingenious in providing five data cables in one: ethernet cable, crossover ethernet cable, modem cable, null modem cable, and Cisco console cable. And you can build it yourself using just a few ordinary parts and an RJ-45 crimping tool.
