Discover how serial device servers are bridging the gap between legacy serial equipment and modern networks. Explore their applications and benefits for industries worldwide.
Serial device servers, often referred to as serial-to-Ethernet converters or terminal servers, are compact yet powerful devices that play a crucial role in bridging the communication gap between serial devices and Ethernet networks. These devices act as intermediaries, enabling legacy serial equipment to communicate with and operate within modern IP-based networks. They provide a lifeline for older equipment that still performs essential functions, such as data acquisition, process control, and automation.
