straight-through T-adapter with 3 jacks for RS422 |
|
|
I'm looking for a T-adapter wired straight-through with RJ11 6conductors
that has 3 jacks going into the one plug. I'm using it with RS422 serial
connections. Any idea where I can purchase one? The suppliers that I'm
familiar with seem to stock only 2 jack adapters.
Thanks. |

Why not just get 3 (or more) jack blocks and wire them yourself? |

That's the setup that I'm actually trying to replace. The wires get yanked
all the time so there are too many points of failure to test out when they
fail. With just a wire and 1 shared t-adapter per device, it'll make it
easier to troubleshoot. |

What's to get yanked? You wire up three connectors and put them in a box.
There are modular systems available, that can fit the bill. |

Oh, I see what you're saying. I thought that you meant using a 2 port t-
adapter, running two cable from it and installing another 1-to-2 adapter at
the end of one of the cables.
We've been doing all of this serial cabling through standard cat 5
structured wiring and just employing t-adapters to break the connection out
into multiple patch cables for multiple devices. |
