Perfect for use in industrial monitoring and control, POS, security, medical, and traffic flow applications, the RS232 Serial over Cat 5 extender maintains the RS232 standard with support for data transfer rates of up to 230 Kbps.

Works well for our needs
The extender was purchased to control a camera on a tower outside our broadcast facility. The cable run was over 500' from the Control Room to the top of the tower. Installation was easy and the extender works great.

worked very well, stable and consistent
we had a cat 5 run over 500 ft that ran from our hospitality front desk serial interface to the restaurant point of sale server, easy to install, i did use the power adapters as it was convenient to do so... worked very well, as advertised, would use it again.

Not that great!
We needed the product to work @ 57600 Baud and we simply didn't get near there! I tested it @ 9600, 19200, 38400, and 57600 Baud on a 256 ft Cat 5 cable. Only 9600 & 19200 worked successfully.
