Help with missing AX100 to UPS cable

I recently acquired an AX100.  When it was given to me it was missing all of its original cabling (as an academic researcher, I often find myself in this sort of beggars can't be choosers situation).   I have got the box up and running. but I would like to get communication between the UPS and AX100 working.  Does anyone know the Dell part number for the necessary cable?  I found several different numbers on the web, but haven't been able to track any of them down through Dell.  At this point, even a pinout for the cable/adapter would very helpful.  Thanks in advance.

The F9100 cable you see in this Dell KB article should work.

Thanks.  I will try to track that one down.  The F9100 looks a lot like the cable that I have from APC (P/N APC9316) which doesn't work (not that you see the pin out from the picture :emotion-1: ).   Some of my reading suggests that the AX100 (and maybe CX) systems used slightly different cabling than the AX150 to hook up to the UPS.  It appears that the AX100 (and maybe the CX)  used the usual SmartUPS DB9-DB9 cable from APC plus a DB9-RJ45 adapter that came with the SAN whereas the AX150 install instructions refer to a single DB9 to RJ45 cable.

F9100 is the replacement of that combination of the DB9-DB9 cable and the dongle.
