ICP DAS tDS-722 - Serial to Ethernet Device Server, with PoE and 2 RS 232 portrs
by ICP DAS

TDS-722 is a Tiny Serial to Ethernet Device Server with PoE and two 5-wire RS-232 Ports. The TDS-722 is a Serial-to-Ethernet device server that adds Ethernet and Internet connectivity to any RS-232 device. It also helps with eliminating cable length limitations of legacy serial communications. Through the VxComm Driver/Utility, the built-in COM port of the TDS-722 series can be virtualized to a standard PC COM port in Windows. Users can transparently access or monitor serial devices over the Internet/Ethernet without software modification.

The TDS-722 device servers can be used to create a pair-connection application (as well as serial-bridge or serial-tunnel), and then route data over TCP/IP between two serial devices. It's useful when connecting mainframe computers, servers or other serial devices that do not themselves have Ethernet capability. By virtue of its protocol independence and flexibility, the TDS-722 meets the demands of virtually any network-enabled application.

For maximum space savings, the TDS-722 is offered in an amazing tiny form-factor that makes it can be easily installed in anywhere, even directly attached to a serial device or embedded into a machine. The TDS-722 features a powerful 32-bit MCU to handle efficient network trafficking. The TDS-722 offers true IEEE 802.3af-compliant (classification, Class 1) Power over Ethernet (PoE) using a standard category 5 Ethernet cable to receive power from a PoE switch like the NS-205PSE. When there is no PoE switch on site, the TDS-722 accepts power input from DC adapter.

The TDS-722 is equipped with a male DB-9 connector, while other models are equipped with a removable terminal block connector for easy wiring. It also supports automatic RS-485 direction control when sending and receiving data.
