It comes with the serial cable (as long as you get that version of ACjr) if you need a longer cable I think you have to make it...

I'm pretty sure you can't hook up with Cat5 with the jr. atleast.

I see that the thread is revived just in time.

What else do I need to connect AC Jr to a PC besides Ground Isolated Serial Connector? Can i get a serial cable from compusa or something?

Bill - you mentioned couple of posts ago, it comes with ethernet & webserver. I thought only the higher models have that. Can I connect the AC Jr to pc using a Cat 5e cable?

Only the higher models come with ethernet, but some folks connect the junior to a laptop and run the webserver on the laptop. I think they have a funky pinout on their serial cable, check out Neptune's website. I ordered a cable last PA buy for $15, but its only about 3 ft.

BTW Jason at PA says the JR's should be back in stock by the time we order so you won't have to wait long. ;)
