Serial to Ethernet Connector allows you to share up to 255 serial port devices over a TCP/IP network turning your computer into a low-cost terminal server. As a result, any serial port device connected to a COM port could be accessed from anywhere in the world as if it were attached to the local PC. When the attached serial port device sends communication data, Serial to Ethernet Connector converts it to TCP/IP data and hooks it over the Ethernet. On the remote side Serial to Ethernet Connector converts TCP/IP packages back into serial data. Serial to Ethernet Connector provides the ability to create several connection types for three main purposes: share serial port for incoming connections (Server), connect serial port to remote host (Client) and share serial port using UDP. Feature: # Connect to several remote computers simultaneouslynew! # Easily connect to remote computer using TCP/IP Telnet protocol, with the RFC 2217 Telnet extensions for COM Port Control # Share your serial ports and devices with others over TCP/IP network # Share an unlimited number of serial ports simultaneously for remote connections # Both TCP/IP and UDP/IP protocols are supported # Connection speed in serial port pairs is much more reliable and faster than in physical links # High speed data exchange from/to virtual serial port (up to 256 Kbits) # Virtual serial ports work like real physical ports # Serial port names are not restricted to COMxx only and may have virtually any name # Renaming full port names in Device Manager # Dynamically change COM port parameters without necessity to reopen or re-create itnew! # Verify connection's integrity by using "send command to keep connection alive" featurenew! # Automatically restore connection within a customizable timeout on connection breaks # Set pauses after which all received data is sent to remote end when using UDP as underlayer protocol # Small packet transmission speed can be increased by disabling Nagle algorithm # Ability to send data of certain size and on receiving the specified char in UDP connection type # Map your real serial port to any other virtual or real port # Ports could be automatically configured every time you boot your PC # Strict baudrate emulation option for virtual ports # Manage port signal lines states in connections # Secure your data transmission over network by authorization system and traffic encryption # Ability to create your own libraries for authorization and encryption (OEM only) # Fully compatible with HyperThreaded and multi-processor systems # Easily track all program's activity in "Activity log" # Works in virtual machine
