Apr 1, 2016 at 3:10 comment added GuitarPicker See electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/187633/… for more discussion on this. Basically, the spec defines maximum cable capacitance to 2500 pF. There are line drivers/baluns/converters available for sending RS-232 signals over longer distances using other methods, such as CAT5 cabling.

Mar 31, 2016 at 5:26 comment added seetharaman For long distances use rs485- differential, twisted pair communication lines
Mar 31, 2016 at 1:41 comment added CoderTao Can you add more info about the cable? (three conductor, no twisted pairs, 18 gauge per conductor, also contains a 120VAC circuit, that kind of info)
