The Ethernet to Serial Gateways NetCom Plus connect RS232 or RS485 devices to a network running TCP/IP. These Serial Device Servers are rugged industrial devices with metal case and wall or 19"-Rack mounting, further supported by ESD protection on serial ports, power input and USB.
The NetCom+ 411 provides four RS232 ports.
The serial ports allow data rates of up to 12Mbps in RS422/485 or 1000kbps in RS232 modes. The ports also allow every non-standard bitrate up to 3.5Mbps, and many more (e.g. 5Mbps). See FAQ.
The gateways demand 6W of power or less. The flexible input allows for various sources of customers choice. This includes Power-over-Ethernet in POE-models.
For NetCom Plus series there is a software option using the viaVPN Cloud system (www.viaVPN.com) to be remotely accessed and monitored over Internet. viaVPN provides secure and strongly encrypted access, without any reconfiguration of existing firewalls. The access to the firmware via Ethernet or WLAN is extended by viaVPN over Internet, protected by a VPN tunnel. If the Com ports are not occupied by local access, also remote operation over Internet is possible.
