Connection Description

BayTech's RPC Series unit provides a Serial EIA232 interface that controls user access and outlet
controls to the power strip.

CAUTION: All power should be removed from the BayTech unit prior to removing or
installing cables and /or adapters.

EIA-232 SERIAL CONNECTION

The RPC has an RJ-45 port which uses an 8-pin crossed modular cable to connect to a local EIA-232
device such as a computer terminal or external modem. Most serial computers do not have RJ-45
connections; therefore an adapter is provided with this unit to convert from a DE-9 connector to an RJ-
45 connector (Bay Tech Part No. 9FRJ45PC-4). An adapter to convert from a DB-25 connector to an
RJ-45 connector is also available from Bay Tech, upon request (Bay Tech Part No. 25FRJ45PC-4).
The 8-pin crossed modular cable is configured to operate with these adapters.
