Serial communication, per se, has no single spec and rs232 has no distance limitation specified. What spec are you referring to?
The 50' thing is allover the web. Search for "rs-232 max distance" or "max distance serial cable". At one point i knew what all of it meant. The only thing i remember now is countless responses/posts/accounts of that distance being easily doubled/tripled/quadrupled over Cat5.
