5.3.1 Endpoint Device Connected to the AP
In this arrangement, information received via an AP Ethernet port is sent
to the serial port of the Remotes and the AP local serial port. The reverse
is also true, meaning that any data received from the serial port of any
Remote or the AP local serial port is encapsulated into an IP packet and
sent out the AP Ethernet port.

Application Example
Once the transceivers are configured and the changes have been exe-
cuted, they begin processing any data presented at the COM ports. Data
presented at the AP
COM port is packetized and sent over the air via a
proprietary protocol to the Remote. Upon receiving the packet, the
Remote sends the data from its
COM port. Likewise, data presented at
the Remote
COM port is packetized, sent to the AP, stripped, and sent
from the AP
COM port. Note that this configuration does not use multi-
cast addressing.
