The Octopus cable and the USB adapter are both DTE
i.e. they are designed to plug into a modem.

The RJ45 layout is arranged so that a rolled cable is DTE,
and a straight thru is DCE.

What I do is buy a DB9 to RJ45 plug from the likes of Frys
(Radio Parts here in Oz) and arrange the pins as below

RJ45  Func  DB9   DB25
1     CTS   7     4
2     DTR   4     20
3     TxD   3     2
4     GND   5     7
5     GND   5     7
6     RxD   2     3
7     DSR   6     8
8     RTS   8     5
