Which cable(s)? Madge AccessSwitch 20 and Cisco router

Picked up a Madge/Initia AccessSwitch 20 off eBay with 8 BRI, 1 PRI, 1 E3, and 2x 44 pin connectors and 2x 15 pin connectors.

I have been told that the two 44 pin and the two 15 pin connectors can be used for frame relay. Only problem is, I have no clue which cables to purchase to get it hooked into my lab...

Here is what is printed on the back:

(---44 pin connector---) (---44 pin connector---) A1 - RS449 / V.35 / x.21 - A2

and to the right of those ports is:

(---15 pin connector---) (---15 pin connector---) A1 - RS366A/RS366 - A2

Sounds like quite a chase from googling it.

The 44-pin connectors are totally custom and unique to that box. Looks like Tandberg made some at one point for one Madge box...

The 15 pin may be be for your T1/PRI. They had Tx on pins 1 & 9 and RX on pins 3 & 11 if its stock 15pin T1 pinout.

You may have to break down at get them from Initia themselves.. (hopefully you got the programming software too).

Hmm, seems like I should just go from the 44 pin (male) to V.35 (male) to V.35 (female) to DB60.
