Serial to Ethernet converters for extreme fields of application

COM servers enable devices with serial interfaces to be smoothly integrated into Ethernet networks. The two new models are suitable for temperature ranges from -40degC to +70degC and offer a supply voltage range from 12 to 30V AC/DC. The devices enable easy configuration via web-based management.

With the reasonably-priced basic version for storing serial interfaces in the network via the virtual COM port, existing serial devices can be made network-capable. In addition, the universal version works as a Modbus gateway. As such, serial Modbus RTU /ASCII systems can be easily converted to Modbus/TCP and vice versa. This enables existing serial Modbus devices to be conveniently networked with modern Modbus/TCP devices.
