Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a StarTech.com RS-232 Serial Extender. You’ll be able to place

your serial devices up to 3300 feet (1000m) away from your system, an incredible 65

times greater than normal RS-232 serial cable length restrictions. The Local and Remote

units connect using standard Category 5 Ethernet Cable and there’s no need to buy

additional hubs or software, you just plug in and go.

Features

•Extends the connection distance of your serial devices by up to 3300 feet (1000 meters)

using Category 5 Ethernet cables

• Provides you with flexibility when choosing the location your serial peripherals by

breaking the maximum RS-232 serial cable length of 50 feet (15 meters)

•Allows you to control serial devices from a remote location

•Features data transfer rates of up to 57.6 Kbits/sec with full duplexing

•Pure hardware design, no software or drivers required

Before You Begin

CAUTION: The Category 5 cable you will use to connect the modules of the RS-232

Serial Extender carries electrical power which could damage other devices. We strongly

suggest that you do not connect either RS-232 Serial Extender module to another device.

You can use the stickers provided to mark both ends of the Category 5 cable for easy

identification.

System Requirements

•RS-232 serial cables to connect the local and remote modules to the source and

destination devices (if required)

•Standard straight-through Category 5 cable up to 3300 feet (1000 meters)

Connecting Your RS-232 Serial Extender

The diagram below demonstrates how to connect the RS-232 Serial Extender to your

devices. The kit contains two modules: the local unit (with a female RS-232 serial port)

and the remote unit (with a male RS-232 serial port). The local unit connects to the

source device that you wish to print or send information from (computer, point-of-sale

terminal, etc.). The remote unit connects to the destination device that will receive the

information (printer, computer, etc.). You will use a standard Catagory 5 Ethernet cable

to connect the two modules. For distances of up to 1000 feet (330 meters), you only need

to connect a power adapter to one module (either the local unit or the remote unit). For

longer distances, connect a power adapter to both modules.

Once both modules are in place, the RS-232 Serial Extender becomes transparent to you

and your equipment. Your devices will function like they are connected directly.
