I have a non-cisco router with a "normal" V.35 cable, and would like to
work it into an OSPF, BGP or IS-IS network with my cisco routers. I
have another non-cisco router for which I have seen V.35 cables being
sold, and have my eye on a third.
Two questions:
1. Can I just connect a cable that is "DB-60/DCE to V.35-female/DTE"
(if are they available ready-made at a reasonable cost) to another
cable that is "V.35-male/DCE to (anything)/DTE" and get an equivalent
back-to-back cable?
2. I have a modular board from a DSU that connects two V.35 female
jacks to what appears to be a VM backplain female connector. I could
get some appropriate sized wires and jumper the two V.35 connectors
together however I wanted. Has anybody ever done that to create a
"virtual telco" in order to connect two routers? I would probably have
to inject my own clock signal, right? What voltage, duty cycle, etc
would I need? Or could I finally find a use for my cisco 3000 by just
taking a clock from from the DB-50 serial connector there?
I do have an entry level oscilliscope multi meters, and other
electronic equipment, I was into electronics before home computers were
available.
