Device Server in focus:
The possibility of versatile protocol conversion
Industrial device servers are essential components of networks that enable communication between serial devices and Ethernet-based networks. They serve as
interface converters and provide versatile protocol conversion capabilities for smooth data transmission and communication. In this paragraph, we take a deep technical look at the outstanding features of these devices.
Protocol conversion for seamless communication:
Industrial device servers bridge the gap between different protocols to ensure smooth data communication. They support a wide range of industry standard protocols such as ASCII, EtherCAT, HTTP, ModbusRTU, ModbusTCP, SNMP, TCP/IP, Telnet and transparent transmissions.
Flexibility in interface selection:
These powerful devices offer versatile interface options, including Ethernet, RS 232, RS 422, RS 485, and combinations such as RS 232/422/485 or RS 232/485, enabling comprehensive integration into a wide variety of network configurations.
Scalable number of serial ports and LAN ports:
The industrial device servers are available in different configurations. Both the number of serial ports and the LAN ports can vary depending on the device design. With a large variation, we enable you to flexibly adapt to the respective application scenario.

Special features for advanced connectivity:
In addition to protocol conversion, some models offer special features such as Console Management for remote device control, Redundant Ring for reliable network connectivity, Virtual COM Port for creating virtual COM ports, and web interfaces for easy configuration and management.
Rugged design for demanding environments:
Industrial device servers are designed for use in harsh environments and offer various temperature ranges from -40°C to +75°C. The devices are available in sturdy plastic or metal housings with an IP30 or IP40 protection rating. This makes them resistant to dust and moisture.
Multiple supply voltage options:
The industrial device servers are flexible in terms of supply voltage and offer options of
9V, 12V, 24V, 48V or
PoE (Power over Ethernet) to ensure optimal power supply.
