Marketing description

PortServer TS delivers standard serial-to-Ethernet connectivity simply and reliably. It easily addresses the growing need to connect individual devices to the network over industry standard Ethernet in many applications.
PortServer TS is ideal for applications requiring COM ports or where TCP/UDP Sockets, or UDP multicast functionality is required. It includes Digi's patented RealPort COM port redirector technology, which makes it possible to establish a connection between the host and networked serial device by creating a local COM or TTY port on the host computer, allowing existing software applications to work without modification.
