RS-232 Extender - Connecting the RS-232 Extender

 

 

Connecting the RS-232 Extender  

 

Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your 

RS-232

 

Extender

. After connecting your 

RS-232

 

Extender

, connect 

its power and then switch on the power to each device. 

Note!

 In the 

RS-232 Extender

 system, the CAT 5 cables carry 

electrical power. Do 

NOT

 connect them to any other device. To avoid 

this, we recommend that you attach the stickers provided to the ends 
of the CAT 5 cable. 

Figure 1

 illustrates the 

RS-232 Extender

 connections.  

 

Connect the local and remote RS-232 extender units to each other using a 
CAT 5 cable. 

 

Up to 330m (1000ft), connect a power adapter to either the local or remote 
RS-232 extender unit. 

 

For distances of more than 330m (1000ft) connect a power adapter to both 
the local and remote RS- 232 extender units. Additional power adapters can 
be ordered from Kramer. 

Once connected, the 

RS-232 Extender

 system is ready to transmit RS-232 

signals.
