Re: Serial Terminal Servers

[David Wolfskill <david@catwhisker.org>]

I recall that one of the contributors to this thread mentioned the symptom
of a "BREAK" being seen as a result of power-cycling the device on the
other end of the cable.

I was just leafing through a recently-received copy of the catalog for
Workstation Express (htt://www.workstationexp.com/), and note that on
the back cover, they advertise "Non-Aborting Serial Console" adapters
of various flavors (at US$89 each).

I've never used these, so I cannot attest to how well they work.  For that
matter, I've never purchased anything from Workstation Express -- I had
merely requested their catalog on the recommendation of a colleague.

But if anyone has used one (or does use one), it might be worth reporting
back on experiences....

Cheers,
david
