External 56k modem question

[basmic]

Right I have a Creative ModemBlaster DE5720, external jobby. It has a female 9-pin serial port on the back - but of course, computers (that actually them) have male serial ports.

I'm just wondering what sort of cable I'll need to connect to the modem? I'm guessing not a serial extension, but a null-modem cable.

Sorry for the golden oldie question.

a female to male one, fairly obviously

Aye. But an extension serial cable, or a null-modem cable?

I've already got a cable, but I'm not sure what kind it is.
