The original Redpark C2-RJ45 cable is limited to baud rates of 57600 and less. This is due to the C2-RJ45 cable using serial pins on the Apple 30 pin connector. The serial pins on this connector are limited to running at the maximum speed of (actually slightly less than) 57600.

The new Redpark C2-RJ45"V" cable can run at 115200 baud or less. This cable has different hardware on it that utilizes the USB lines within the Apple 30 pin connector. This does however mean that it will only work with iOS 5.0 and later (on iOS devices that support iOS5.0 - ie not iPhone 3G)
