I don&#8217;t want to have to bring it down every time I need to flash the firmware, so I&#8217;m also running an rs-232 cable up to it along with the PoE data\/power cable.  Since they don&#8217;t have anything pre-built, I wired one myself.  I also made a png of the schematic I used.  It is probably wrong.  The rj-45 should probably have been flipped over, &#8216;cuz as it stands, I need to attach a null-modem converter and a rj-45 to db-9 converter I got from Sun from the last Try &#038; Buy thing I did.  It would probably be easier to wire up the rj-45 end as a second db-9 end.  I&#8217;ll probably do that tonight.  But this is the current state, and I&#8217;ve confirmed that it works just fine.  The cat-5 is about 100&#8217; in length, and I saw no loss of signal.  YMMV.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, that&#8217;s the dealio.<\/p>\n<p>[edit: you can also attach generators to your UPS this way]<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=cjamescollier\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, I&#8217;m attaching a radio to the chimney.
