I have used my Airconsole with Clipsal Cbus lighting control. With the correct pinout it works.

I did get the Dell SonicWALL firewall appliances working with AirConsole using the black RJ-45 to serial converter. I had to also purchase a serial male-male adapter.

AirConsole > Blue Cisco USB to RJ-45 cable > RJ-45 side goes into the black RJ-45 to serial adapter > Serial side goes into the male-male adapter > SonicWALL console cable (serial side) > RJ-45 side of the SonicWALL console cable goes to the firewall.

I've tested and it works with a Dynalite DTK622-USB-J lighting interface connected directly to the USB port of the Airconsole V2.50. In EnvisionProject just set the connection setting to an IP connection with the IP of the Airconsole and port number 2167, set the TX delay to 100ms. The Airconsole directly communicates with the Prolific USB/serial adaptor built into the interface.
