Product Name: USB and Serial Connectivity Serial Servers EtherLite

Product Description

Multiplexes all serial ports into a single TCP/IP session to minimize Ethernet traffic 
RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 models 
Flash memory for instant field upgrades 


The EtherLite family of serial servers blends the control and performance of asynchronous serial communications with the convenience of an Ethernet connection. Available in two- to 32-port versions, the traffic from all serial ports is serviced by a single TCP/IP session. 

The EtherLite network serial concentrator connects asynchronous serial ports to your network. It replaces the installation of serial adapters in servers for applications in retail/POS, process control, data collection and console management of clusters, routers, hubs, switches, PBXs and other networking devices with console ports.
