Cable required to upgrade firmware on Rotel RSP-1068?

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a cable to upgrade the firmware on a Rotel processor (one that works with the 1068)

It's a special RJ45 to 9 pin D connector cable, will only the Rotel one work or is there another cheaper alternative I can buy?

It's not the standard RS232 DB9 to RJ45 cable. You will have to DIY or buy from Rotel.

Regards

PS. Not sold yet ?

Thanks for the info... Has been sold, just trying to track down the cable for the new buyer.

Can anyone give me some more information on this. I bought the processor in 2004 and havent upgraded the software since. Does anybody have a cable i could borrow if i paid for postage?

Have you checked in the box - I received one with my RSP-1066?

If not, I'm sure I could lend you mine if you paid postage both ways.
