For a lot of Motorola phones, it is a USB standard USB cable with a 5 pin mini-USB connector on the phone end. You put the phone in the modem mode, and it responds to AT commands. You may have to dial a number, or you may use one of the extended AT commands. There are extended AT commands that will also let you use it to send/receive SMS messages. The thing is, when in the modem mode, the phone looks like a modem USB or bluetooth modem to the system, depending on how you connect to it. This may be what the OP is trying to do...
