Terminal & Device Servers

ConnectPort LTS serial servers deliver secure, reliable, flexible and cost-effective RS-232/422/485 serial-to-Ethernet connectivity. Target serial-to-IP applications include data center console port management, security, property management, point-of-sale, data acquisition, industrial automation, power utilities, logistics and others.

Reliable, cost-effective serial-to-network connectivity

PortServer TS 8/16 serial servers deliver intelligent, reliable and cost-effective RS-232/422/485 serial-to-Ethernet connectivity. They support data center console port management applications, as well as property management, point-of-sale, data acquisition, industrial automation, power utilities, travel reservations and other applications requiring serial-to-IP connectivity.

PortServer TS 8/16 incorporates Digi's patented RealPort® COM port redirection software, which provides local serial port functionality. Incoming and outgoing Rlogin and Telnet sessions are also supported on each port. Digi Port Authority - Remote (DPA-Remote) gives users a management tool for monitoring network and serial activity from a Windows or UNIX-based client or server.

In addition, PortServer TS 8/16 serial servers provide SSHv2 encryption to protect against unauthorized monitoring of LAN traffic and port buffering to capture vital information from the serial ports of managed UNIX servers for problem resolution.

PortServer TS P MEI makes it easy to connect RS-232/422/485 serial devices to an IP network. By supporting versatile powering options like powered Ethernet and powered serial, this serial server can adapt to many applications where traditional power alternatives are required.

Powered Ethernet (802.3af, mid- and end-span support) makes it possible to run just one Ethernet cable to the device server for both power and communications. The powered serial feature enables PortServer TS P MEI to power a device over serial using Ring Indicator (RI) or DTR pins. Each power feature is available in addition to a traditional power connector, and can serve as redundant power in case of an outage from either source.

Available in two- and four-port versions, PortServer TS P MEI delivers universal, high performance multiport serial-to- Ethernet connectivity. It is ideal for applications requiring COM ports, serial tunneling, or where TCP/UDP Socket functionality is needed.
