Lantronix has just released the hybrid ethernet multiport device server — a device that connects any device and give it remote capability. Part of the DeviceLinx series, it is featured with the Evolution OS and comes in eight and sixteen ports.  The EDS has built in AES, SSH and SSL allowing safe remote access and management from virtually anywhere. You will also find a familiar Cisco CLI type interface which simplifies configuration and control and the Com Port Redirector virtualization software (allowing for existing applications to work with the EDS without code modifications).

This is a great addition to their current device servers, offering more functionality and security than its market equivalent competitors.  The EDS 8 port and 16 port series is now available at our online store.

About the UDS1100

The Lantronix UDS1100 networks any RS232, RS422 and RS485 equipment to Ethernet, allowing quick remote access, management, monitoring and control capability. Configuration can be done via HTTP, DHCP, Telnet, serial or the Lantronix DeviceInstaller utility.

Other features:

• Transparent network device enabler that uses serial tunneling
• Web page management capability that can be customized to your applications
• On-board flash memory for future system software upgrades and non-volatile web page storage
• Onboard modem emulation mode that replaces the need for dial up modems; accepting standard modem AT commands on the serial port — thus eliminating dedicated modem and phone lines while leveraging the bandwidth of Ethernet
• Total Com Port Control with TruPort Technology enabling Windows-based applications to access and control serial ports on the UDS1100 as if they were actually local PC serial ports. This allows “existing applications to seamlessly transition from controlling local devices to true remote monitoring and control of devices around the world”.
