Ethernet continues to be the predominant office networking
infrastructure. Now, Ethernet has made its way from the office to
the shop floor. Traditional serial environments require the use of
multi-port serial cards, expensive cables, and the personnel to
manage multiple systems. Patton’s Model 2211 Single-Port Device
Server provides a quick, inexpensive, and hassle-free solution for
connecting legacy serial terminals and devices to a local area
network (LAN).
The Patton 2211 links legacy serial RS-232 devices to the network by
encapsulating serial data into IP packets for transport over the
wireless LAN. Using TCP or TELNET, the Patton 2211 can connect to
any user-defined IP address and port. Once connected to the remote
host, data is passed transparently end-to-end. The built-in DHCP
Client allows the Patton 2211 to dynamically obtain an IP address
and a subnet mask from a master server. COM Port Redirector is
included with Patton’s 2211 enabling companies to use their existing
COM/TTY-based software, preventing the hassle and expense of
investing in additional software.
Physical layer-connectivity is provided via an RS-232 serial port
and a 10BaseT Ethernet port. Configure the serial port’s data rate,
ranging from 1200bps to 115.2 kbps, and choose from a variety of
connector types including DB9 or DB25 male or female.
Patton’s Model 2211 offers the lowest transition cost in turning
your serial infrastructure to IP.
The Patton 2211 Single-Port Device Server is used to connect various
RS-232 serial devices to the Local Area Network through their serial
control ports. The 2211 enables monitoring, control, and data
collection from this equipment by remote computers located anywhere
on the local or wide area network. Both Ad hoc and Infrastructure
mode is supported on the 2211.
COM Port redirector is provided for users who choose to use their
existing serial communication application programs. Utilizing the
COM Port redirector software provided on the Patton Model 2211
allows existing COM/TTY-based software to be preserved, thus no
additional investment is required on additional software.
