Serial/Ethernet converter
Simple integration of end devices into Ethernet networks
Serial interfaces such as RS232, RS422 or RS485 are 
widespread today in automation systems. To integrate these 
devices into modern Industrial Ethernets, Serial/Ethernet 
converters are used which offer investment protection for 
existing automation components. These devices include 
control systems, sensors, meters, drives, bar code readers 
and operator displays.
Weidmüller’s Serial/Ethernet converters connect these 
devices simply and easily to existing Ethernet network 
structures. The conguration of the serial port and Ethernet 
port parameters is done using an internet browser. 
On the Ethernet side, these devices support several 
operating modes: including TCP server, TCP client, UDP, 
Real COM, RFC 2217, Reverse Telnet, Pair Connection and 
Ethernet modem. These modes ensure compatibility for the 
network software.
There are two Ethernet ports on the device which can be 
used as Ethernet switch ports. This helps to reduce your 
cabling costs since you no longer need to connect each 
device with a separate Ethernet switch.
