Modular Serial Adapter Connects Serial Network Hardware to Your Tripp Lite Console Server

Tripp Lite’s B090-A9F Modular Serial Adapter features straight-through wiring to let you connect a network device with a DB9 serial port to a Tripp Lite B096-016, B096-032 or B096-048 console server. One end of the adapter features a DB9 female connection, while the other end has an RJ45 female connection. With this adapter, you will be able to connect a device such as a serial Ethernet switch, router or PBX system and monitor it over IP through your console server. The connection also requires an inexpensive Cat5/Cat6 patch cable between the adapter and the console server’s RJ45 port.
