NetPort Ethernet to RS232 Cable Adapter

The NetPort Ethernet to RS232 Cable Adapter is a ‘plug-and-play’ Serial to Ethernet cable adaptor that will allow any device or machine with a serial port, such as network routers, meter readers, fire and security or monitoring systems, industrial control or legacy systems to become network and Internet enabled in an instant.

NetPort is the most cost-effective Serial-to-Ethernet Cable Adapter, and can be integrated into a system with minimal effort and used worldwide.

Remote Monitoring

NetPort can also give you the ability to access and monitor serial devices and systems from remote offices simply by typing in the IP Address.

How Netport Works

The external NetPort adapter features an integrated web-server allowing any device to which it is attached to be 'contacted' and monitored via a standard Internet browser. TCP/IP protocol stacks are embedded into the NetPort, enabling it to operate within non-PC environments and the adapter features a Modem Emulation Mode allowing it to behave like a modem but communicate over TCP/IP.

Virtual Comm Port drivers are provided to allow a NetPort-connected device to communicate with existing software over TCP/IP (for Windows operating systems). Alternatively, ‘direct socket’ connection can be used.
