Introduction



Thank you for purchasing the patent-pending USB to Serial DB9 SuperBooster Wall
Plate. This wall plate solution provides the connection between USB and the traditional
RS-232 serial port while conquering USB length limitations. The USB to Serial DB9
SuperBooster Wall Plate from Cables To Go extends the distance of a serial device to a
host computer up to 150ft via USB so you can place your device (such as a cellular
phone, PDA, digital camera, modem, scanner, bar code reader, printer, or ISDN terminal
adapter) exactly where you want it!

This plug-and-play device consists of a transmitter unit and receiver unit incorporated
into two, single gang Decora™ compatible wall plates. The transmitter/receiver pair is
connected via standard Cat5, Cat5E, or Cat6 UTP cable allowing for easy in-wall
installation. This makes for a clean, finished installation important for home owners,
classrooms, offices and anywhere you don’t want visible cables lying around. Use pre-
terminated network cables or pull un-terminated cable and use the included tool-less IDC
RJ45 connectors. The USB to DB9 Serial SuperBooster Wall Plate is self-powered so no
external power source is required.
