stupid Sun serial connections

Okay, I've finally got a few Sun boxen (V480s) that I need to tip
into (although I'd still prefer something like minicom, and may try
to get that compiled for Solaris), servers which only have that
special twisted-pair-looking serial port Sun likes.

And I, of course, don't think I have any such cables - where can I
get ahold of the specs for them? If it's something like "use a
pass-through UTP cable" and someone can clear it up for me, please
do! If I need to buy a couple from someplace, please let me know.

And to further complicate matters, I need to add the Sun-provided
adapter for this cable to connect to a DB25 serial port that the V880
I'm using as a main server has. That machine I've got built, now I
need to get a console on each 480 in turn to build them the
old-fashioned way.

TIA,
afm
