Moxa 16 Port RS-232/422/485 Rack-Mount Ethernet Serial Device Server: 100V to 240V AC Power, -40°C to +75°C

with the NPort 5600 rack-mount series, you not only protect your current hardware investment, but also allow for future network expansion by centralising the management of your serial devices and distributing management hosts over the network.

Only basic configuration is needed with the NPort 5600 to connect up to 16x serial devices to an Ethernet network.

NPort 5600 device servers come with Tx/Rx LEDs for the serial ports on the front panel, and 16x RJ45 serial port connectors on the rear panel. This makes the NPort 5600 device servers suitable for standard 19-inch rack mounting, allowing you to simplify operational, maintenance, and administrative tasks.

Real COM/TTY drivers are provided to make the serial ports on the NPort 5600 recognisable as Real COM ports by Windows, or Real TTY ports by Linux. In addition to supporting basic data transmission and reception, the NPort drivers also support the RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, and DCD control signals.

The System LED, serial Tx/Rx LEDs, and Ethernet LEDs (located on the RJ45 connector) provide a great tool for basic maintenance tasks and help engineers analyse problems in the field. The LEDs not only indicate current system and network status, but also help field engineers monitor the status of attached serial devices.

When using termination resistors to prevent serial signal reflection, it is important to set the pull high/low resistors correctly so that the electrical signal is not corrupted. Since no set of resistor values is universally compatible for all environments, the NPort 5650-16 has DIP switches on the bottom panel for setting the termination and pull high/low resistor values.
