cisco async to l-class console

[Matt_88]

does anyone happen to know what the pinout on a HP W-cable (A5191-63001) are, specifically the 9 pin console end? or if anyone has used a cisco async terminal server to console to a HP L Class server, i would like to know the cable used, adapter used, or any info that will get me a console connection. any useful info will be greatly appreciated. thanks.
