Netcom Plus 813

NetCom+ 813 is an industrial-strength network-based serial device server for connecting eight RS232/422/485 devices like CNC, PLC, weighting scale, scanner and others directly to a network running TCP/IP. The driver for Windows operating system installs Virtual Com Ports.
The NetCom+ provides communication secured by SSL and AES-256 bit keys. This is implemented by openVPN tunnel software, which is Open Source and royalty-free for Server and Client software. With openVPN enabled the whole communication whith the NetCom runs through the secure tunnel. All data is automatically secured without implementing SSL into customers applications. SSL also protects the configuration and access to the attached serial devices.
In addition to allowing serial devices to get networked, any host (PC Server or Workstation) without network access can also access remote serial devices via adding NetCom devices to an existing serial port. NetCom+ 813 can be configured over Driver Panels, WEB Browser, serial Port, Telnet, SNMP and serves as a transparent serial channel without platform and distance limitation.
The NetCom+ 813 is based on a modern RISC processor. It is powered via DC adapter or optionally by Power-over-Ethernet (PoE 802.3af). Further option is networking by WLAN 802.11b/g/n.
