From Ethernet Direct
04/06/2007
Taipei, Taiwan, 6 April,
2007– Ethernet Direct Corporation,
a professional and primary provider of Industrial
Networking and communication solutions,
is pleased to introduce BMS-836, a 8-port
high speed Serial Device Server, which provides
reliable communication connection between
RS-232/422/485 serial devices to an Ethernet
LAN/WAN.
BMS-836 ensures future network expandability
in order to protect an existing hardware
device investment. Ethernet Direct series
of Serial Device servers work with about
any device with serial connectivity instantly.
BMS device server family enable serial devices
connected to the IP networks. Three type
of serial interfaces are supported, RS232,
RS422, and RS485.
Ethernet serial device server allow all
three interfaces access to LAN/WAN. Communication
with serial devices can be done without
changing existing serial program. That can
be accomplished by using virtual COM device
driver installed to the host computer, or
using a pair of Ethernet Serial device servers.
The latter is also called serial tunneling.
No extra software is required to connect
two serial devices over the IP networks.
BMS-136, BMS-236 and BMS-436
Reliable, cost-effective serial-to-Ethernet
connectivity BMS-836
