See link below for all the cable(s)/adapter(s) you might need. http://ind-concepts.com/Allen_Bradley_PLC_Cables.htm

Mini-DIN8 connectors that actually fit the MicroLogix well are very hard to find; AppleTalk cables are closest. Since the 1747-CP3 is already a null-modem cable, you need to find the 1761-CBL-PM02 pinout and switch Pins 2 and 3 on the DB9 side. Round MiniDIN Pin 4 RX - DB9 Pin 2 Round MiniDIN Pin 7 TX - DB9 Pin 3 Round MiniDIN Pin 2 SGND - DB9 Pin 5
