[c-nsp] CAB-OCTAL-ASYNC alternative

[David Coulson]

Get a RJ45-RJ45 patch panel - That is, a panel with RJ45 connectors 
wired straight through on both sides. Plug your octal cable into one 
side, then run patch cables to your devices and use a RJ45-DB9 adapter. 
Or you can run a patch cable directly into a device that has a RJ45 
console port. That way you can always roll the device side cable, or use 
a differently wired RJ45-DB9 adapter for anything that is unusual.
