Connectors RS-232 devices may be classified as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) or Data Circuit-terminating Equipment (DCE); this defines at each device which wires will be sending and receiving each signal. Source: Internet
Connecting a fully standard-compliant DCE device and DTE device would use a cable that connects identical pin numbers in each connector (a so-called "straight cable"). Source: Internet
DTE devices usually transmit on pin connector number 2 and receive on pin connector number 3. DCE devices are just the opposite: pin connector number 2 receives and pin connector number 3 transmits the signals. Source: Internet
Each data or control circuit only operates in one direction, that is, signaling from a DTE to the attached DCE or the reverse. Source: Internet
OSF attempted to make DCE RPC an IETF standard, but ultimately proved unwilling to give up change control. Source: Internet
