Lantronix MSS100 External Device Server rs232 ethernet internet adapter.
No accessories, cables etc are included.
Allows you to network-enable a variety of rs232 serial devices that were not originally designed to be networked and, therefore internet access
It provides a serial port at one end and a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet I/O port on the other end.
There is a video, on YouTube, showing someone using one of these to connect a Commodore Amiga 500 to an ethernet network and to the internet.
I bought this to experiment with and never got round to it.
