PortServer TS 2/4 delivers standard serial-to-Ethernet connectivity simply and reliably. It easily addresses the growing need to connect individual devices to the network over industry standard Ethernet in many applications. PortServer TS 2/4 is ideal for applications requiring COM ports or where TCP/UDP Sockets, or UDP multicast functionality is required. It includes Digi's patented RealPort COM port redirector technology which makes it possible to establish a connection between the host and networked serial device by creating a local COM or TTY port on the host computer, allowing existing software applications to work without modification.
