Which of the following devices is required to interface an Ethernet device to an EIA/TIA 232 device?
  1. PLC module
  2. Bridge
  3. Network adapter
  4. Line conditioner
Explanation
Answer - B - Bridge is required to interface an Ethernet device to an EIA/TIA 232 device.

Key Takeaway: EIA/TIA 232 is a legacy cabling standard for serial connections. An Ethernet to serial bridge converts the communication signal into the formats required by protocols used. EIA/TIA-232 supports unbalanced circuits at signal speeds of up to 64 kbps, which closely resembles the V.24 specification.
