I am looking at purchasing one of these puppies to handle my Sun
servers. One thing that concerns me a bit though is the fact that they
are not too clear on which cable I need.

I have a mixture of E4500's, E3000, E420R, E250s.

So this posting is really for three questions:

1) Has anyone had any good (or bad) experiences with this terminal
server.

2) Which cable do I need to have made up as I need longer cables then
Digi provides.

3) I used to work with the Annex terminal server and for that I didn't
have to do any special setup at the server end. Just configure the
ports on the Annex and plug it into the serial port on the server.
Since there was no monitor/keyboard attached, the server defaulted to
TTYa...and all I had to do was telnet to a specific port and voila....a
console. What is this realport driver all about with the digi product?
I would assume they work pretty close to the same.
