I adopted a spare data cable for mobile phones, configured for Samsung SGH-E700 but the PCB: DC-U-6858(A) seems  quite generic, e.g. it is offered for [http://forum.freifunk-hannover.de/viewtopic.php?p=2669#2669 Siemens] as well.  The PCB comprises the '''[http://www.stkaiser.de/anleitung/files/OTi6858.pdf OTi6858]''' chip. FWIW: not the Prolific IC, in case you get [http://innoonline.de/faq/Treiber_USB_E700.html confused] when Windows is looking for a "USB-UART Tx Line" device driver.
