The CAT5 RS-232 Extender is a low
cost, hardware-based solution providing remote access and control of
any RS-232 protocol device. With regular RS-232 devices you are
limited to an immediate area of control. The CAT5 RS-232 Extender
extends control to over 1000m/3,300 ft. This provides you with a tremendous
amount of flexibility in your topology. Now you can place RS-232
devices in any location you want and control them remotely. The RS-232
Extender also provides full duplex transmission and is compatible with
all RS-232 protocols.
Multiple
Application
Thanks to its powerful
functionality the CAT5 RS-232 Extender is an excellent solution for a
variety of applications and environments. For example:
-
Place a touch screen outdoors and have it control a
computer indoors (with KVM extender)
-
Control a third party presentation unit remotely
-
Transfer data or files between computers
Easy To
Install
Installing the Extender is quick
and easy. Thanks to its simple architecture all you do is plug and
play! The system itself is composed of two units both made of sturdy
metal casing:
The two units are connected via standard CAT5 cable. Because the CAT5
is extremely thin it is easy to install and does not create cable
clutter. A single power supply is used to power the system and it can
be placed at either end depending on where it is most convenient.
