Sending Pixhawk 2.1 TELEM1 data via RJ45 cable

Greetings everyone,

I am currently working on a tethered drone and wanted to make a couple of changes to the data transmission and I need some help regarding it.

Earlier for telemetry data transmission, I used RFD900+ to connect to the mission planner but now I want to eliminate the wireless transmission and in place of that I want to transmit telem data using RJ 45 cable.

So here is what I am in a need to do:

I want to transmit the telemetry down to the laptop using an RJ45 cable in order to connect it to the mission planner.

Since pixhawk telem1 has a signal voltage of 3.3V, can I treat it as an RS232 signal? If yes, can I use this converter to serve my purpose?

 (RS232 TTL To ethernet RJ45 Converter Network Module)

Can anyone help me to get started to find a solution for this?

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you.
