Lantronix XPress DR Industrial Device Server
Connect PLCs, drives, process controls, power monitoring equipment, barcode scanners, and other factory floorserial devices.The XPress™ DR and XPress DR-IAP Device Servers enable virtually any industrial device with serial capability to be connected to a new or existing Ethernet network. By encapsulating serial data and transporting it over Ethernet, the XPress DR/DR-IAP establishes virtual serial links over Ethernet. By using these units, limited-distance, point-to-point, direct serial connections can now be extended within the plant, throughout the facility, or across the global enterprise.When used in conjunction with an OPC server, most Windows® based HMI, SCADA, and PC-based control applications have full access to information in the connected device. Existing COM-port based Windows® applications can access network-enabled devices using Lantronix Com Port Redirector software. Com Port Redirector allows the creation of virtual serial ports, which can be mapped to remote device serv
