By actively receiving and re-transmitting the most common signal lines of the RS-232C interface, the RelCom Serial Cable Booster can double the maximum length of an RS-232C cable.
When placed in the middle of the cable,the Serial Cable Booster can effectively more than double the maximum 50-foot cable allowed by RS-232C applications.
This criterion also relates to the signal to noise ratio in that it is halved as compared to a long cable without a Serial Cable Booster. The unit is data rate and data format transparent.
