Chris,
I am not certain what you are referring to as a CAT5 coupler, so the
answer is maybe.
If the "CAT5 coupler" is an RS-232 to Ethernet converter, it should
work, but if it simply takes the RS-232 signals and simply connects them
directly to the wires of a CAT5 cable, there will be a limit to the
distance you can add before you encounter errors.

Can I use a CAT5 coupler and cat 5 cable to extend the distance between the
two? I'd like to keep the amp where my KPA500 is in the other room while
operating from my laziboy. :)
