Connect SLC500 5/03, Panelview 2711-B5A5 and PC

Hi, I´m newbie here and I need some help. Is there a simple way to connect a panelview 550 (2711-B5A5)with DH485 communication port to the 5/03 CH1 and connect the CH0 to a PC ?? What kind of cables are intended to use ?? I would like to see both (2711-B5A5 and processor 5/03) in the RSlinx. Is there some way just using plain cables and (or) at least a PIC adapter?? Avoiding to use those adapters (1747-AIC and 1761-NET-AIC+) ??? In addition, if 2711-B5A5 has a DH485 and 5/03 has also a native DH485 port (CH1).Why is not possible to use a cable with RJ45 connector at PLC side and DB9 connector at 2711-B5A5??? Why not ?? Both ports are DH485, right ?? If is possible to do that... let me know. Joe Scheidegger
