I make a straight-through RJ-45 Jack to DB-9 Male connect.
This connect was able to control the animatics from the
port server. Item used:

   Port Server (RJ-45 Jack)
   RJ-45 straight-through cable (plug to plug)
   RJ-45 Jack / DB-9 Male connnector.
   Animatics DB-9 female serial port.

This is how I made the connector:
