Read More Description: Digi Internationals EtherLite Terminal Servers make adding RS-232 and RS-422 serial ports to your network easier than ever. They blend the control and performance of local ports with the convenience of an Ethernet connection. Since the EtherLite ports are real serial devices, they arent weighed down by complex network terminal server overhead. The result is a much simpler configuration, less Ethernet congestion, and a much lower cost per port when compared to conventional Ethernet terminal servers. EtherLite Terminal Servers are not typical Ethernet terminal servers. The traffic from both EtherLite ports is serviced by a single TCP/IP session, compared to the conventional one-session-per-port method. The obvious EtherLite benefit is less overhead at the host, and less traffic on Ethernet. EtherLite serial ports appear as local ttys under UNIX and as native COM ports under Windows NT. These locally-administered, full "hardware-style" ports allow much greater control than standard terminal server ports. EtherLite Terminal Servers are compatible with UNIX® workstations and servers from Sun, HP, IBM, and DEC, and with systems running Windows NT®, Java, or SCO. Minimize |
