RE: reverse telnet [7:6987]
Rich; You are spot on that RS-232 is only spec’ed for 50 ft. However, I have run RS-232 over 1000 ft at 9.6 kbps on wire that was not as good as cat5. My advice is to try it first, at any reasonable length, and only resort to active components if the tests fail. Just my experience. Anthony, the cable Rich is talking about is standard Ethernet patch cables. I use rj-45 couplers to attach the cable to the Cisco octal cable. Any computer store should have both.

I only need to extend about 10 feet. Is that one of the cables that has a black ends with 8 RJ45 ports on each end?

RE: reverse telnet [7:6987]
Depends how far you want to extend it. RS-232 will only go about 50 feet. To do that you can just use a straight thru cat-5. To extend further we use a blackbox fiber modem. ME600A-FST. RS-232 on one end and ST on the other. I'm not sure the exact specs but we have used them to extend 300 + yards. --Rich -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of anthony moore Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2001 11:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: reverse telnet [7:6987] What kind of cable and adapter do I need to extend the octal cable that I am using for reverse telnet?
