The Comtrol DeviceMaster PRO 8-Port is an eight port device server designed for network-enabling serial communications devices. When used with the included NS-Link™ driver software and a host PC, the DeviceMaster PRO enables placement of COM or TTY ports anywhere on an Ethernet network or across the Internet. In applications where connecting legacy serial devices to a PC without software changes is a requirement, a pair of DeviceMaster PRO units can be used to create a point-to-point serial tunnel across the network that seamlessly transfers serial data via TCP or UDP socket connections. This product is fully compliant with the RoHS Directive.
Features:
RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC compliant
No serial cable distance limitations—enables communication between a host PC and serial devices located anywhere across an Ethernet network
Software selectable—RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 serial interfaces simplify setup and eliminate mechanical tampering associated with DIP switch products
Serial ports with enhanced 25KV surge protection— offers enhanced protection ideal for harsh environments
Application Compatibility—supports native COM, TTY, or TCP/IP Socket communication modes
Web-based configuration—makes setup and management changes quickand easy
Rugged metal housing—enables panel and optional rack mounting
Temperature rated for extreme conditions— operating temperature of -37° to 74°C enables DeviceMaster to function in a wide variety of harsh environments
Built-in two-port 10/100 Ethernet switch— simplifies network connection
PortVision®remote monitoring and management— automatically locates DeviceMasters on the network, enabling user to view status, update firmware, and resolve issues remotely
Software Developer Kit—included for users interested in writing custom applications to run on the DeviceMaster platform
