Review: Easy to use, gets the job done. - I use this as part of a control system in my theater. I wanted to use something that would eliminate the need for an IR blaster to be stuck on the front of the piece of equipment I was trying to control. This got the job done and it took pry 15 minutes from start to finish to install, grab an IP and be ready to control.
Review: 3wire rs232 only - Make sure the RS232 device is a three wire or it won’t work

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3wire rs232 only
*by C***A on October 2, 2025*

Make sure the RS232 device is a three wire or it won’t work

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as advertised
*by H***9 on March 22, 2021*

Very easy to setup, works great. The only reason why this is not a 5 star review is that nowhere in the documentation that comes with the device does it indicate that it operates on TCP/IP port 4999, I spent abut 30 minutes before I found this on the Global Cache website
