This industrial serial device server lets you remotely manage a RS232/422/485 serial device over a local or wide area network (LAN/WAN), with redundant power inputs and dual 10/100Mbps Ethernet ports. For more control options, the device server is compatible with the free, StarTech.com Serial Device Application Software (NETRSAPP). When coupled with the NETRS232485, this handy application for iOS, Android, and Chrome Browser lets you build a custom serial control interface that’s tailored to your specific application. To minimize downtime, this intuitive dual Ethernet serial over IP solution maintains connection to your critical equipment by automatically switching to its secondary LAN port within 10 milliseconds of a network failure or disruption. Ideal for industrial environments, the serial to Ethernet device server accepts wide-range 12-48V DC power input via a terminal block or an optional DC jack, enabling you to add redundant power with a secondary adapter (e.g. 12V DC 1.5A Power Adapter SKU: IM12D1500P - sold separately), keeping the device server functional in the event of power surges or failures. This device server supports baud rates up to 460.8Kbps which provides a smooth, high-speed connection to your serial devices. The device server also offers support for HTTPS, SSH and SSL to ensure secure communication, while integrating remote Telnet configuration and support for IP, HTTP, ICMP, DHCP, TCP and UDP protocols. You can customize the serial device server to suit your application with versatile browser-based or virtual com port software configuration. Ensuring performance in harsh environments, this serial device server offers 8KV air, and 4KV contact ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) Protection, and features a rugged, IP-30 case design that is both DIN rail and wall-mountable, with an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 70°C).
