Introduction |
NPort Express DE-211 is a universal
serial device server that can network-enable your industrial serial
devices, such as information display boards, PLCs, flow meters, gas
meters, CNC machines, and biometric identification card readers.
Seamless integration with your
industrial serial devices and Ethernet TCP/IP network
DE-211 supports RS-232/422 and
4-wire/2-wire RS-485, and has a built-in terminator, making it fit for
all types of industrial serial devices and serial communications
topologies. The optional Power over Serial function allows DE-211 to be
powered by DC power pins inside the DB25 serial cable that connects to
the serial device, allowing DE-211 to be seamlessly integrated with
connected serial devices.
Total software solution for
serial-to-Ethernet applications
With the help of Windows Native
COM driver technology, you can keep running existing COM-based
software, such as HyperTerminal, without changing your software under
Windows and Linux operating systems. In addition, DE-211 provides
versatile Raw Connection Modes for sockets, such as TCP Server, TCP
Client, UDP Server/Client, Pair Connection, and Ethernet Modem, making
DE-211 a powerful and flexible tool for completing your important
projects.
Easy installation and
configuration with NPort Configurator
DE-211 NPort Management
Suite provides easy IP configuration, including DHCP, MAC-IP
mapping, and comes with enhanced easy configuration management and fast
deployment capabilities. Friendly Graphical User Interface management
utilities for Windows and user-configurable command mode are both
supplied.
