2-Port RS232/RS422/RS485 Serial Device Server
Cost-effective Solution for RS232/422/485 Serial-to-Ethernet Application
PLANET ICS-120 Serial Device Server is specially designed to convert two serial RS232/RS422/RS485 communication interfaces into Fast Ethernet networking to extend the network distance efficiently and inexpensively.
There is one 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 port in the ICS-120, making connected serial equipment become IP-based, and able to also connect to a TCP/IP networking immediately. And its operating temperature ranging from -10 to 60 degrees C is designed for all your network requirements.
The ICS-120 is a time-saving and cost-effective solution for users and system integrators to quickly transform their serial devices into the Ethernet network with no need of replacing the existing serial devices and software system.
Remote Management
As the ICS-120 provides easy serial-to-Ethernet connectivity and connection to a TCP/IP network, the remote network system can thus be managed efficiently via its Web, telnet, and VCOM management interfaces. It supports both application and serial operation modes for alarm or IP address connection, which saves the administrator’s time in detecting and locating network problems without visual inspection of the cabling and devices. Multiple connection options are available for a large networking environment as well.
