Ambetronics’ RS-232 To Ethernet Converter devices are ideal for applications and devices that require an efficient way of communicating with serial RS-232 devices over an Ethernet network.
The ERS-232 is an economical Modbus-to-Ethernet converter that can quickly and easily be added to any device with a RS-232 serial port, making that device Web-enabled. It is a single port serial server, that converts a serial port to an Ethernet Port, thus removing cable length limitations, and allowing for “serial tunneling” of a device through an Ethernet or TCP/IP.
Converting Data From RS-232 To Ethernet:
RS-232 data sent and received on serial ports on the ERS-232 converter are encapsulated in Ethernet packets in a manner that best fits the type of data being transported. AEPL’s ERS-232 converter (commonly referred to as Terminal Servers or Device Servers) connect RS-232 based equipment across an Ethernet network enabling you to do following things such as:
Cable replacement using RS-232 to Ethernet
Have virtual COM ports connect PC/servers to remote RS-232 devices over Ethernet
Communicate to multiple RS-232 devices at the same time across a network
Use ERS-232 Converter to connect Serial PLCs to Ethernet
Connect serial equipment over Ethernet with ERS-232 Converter
Modbus RTU to Modbus over TCP/IP or Modbus TCP/IP.
