While I have no experience with this particular brand of terminal, I
think you have to assume that the ports are serial ports.  As it COM
ports, RS-232.  If you are trying to wire them to CAT5 because you want
them to do ethernet, they won't.  You would need some kind of ethernet
to serial adapter.  Good luck.
