Brainboxes offers more options to solve your Ethernet to Serial needs

Liverpool
UK – 24th November 2011 Brainboxes, a leader in serial connectivity,
has introduced RS422/485 versions of their 4 and 8 port Ethernet to serial products.
As with all our Ethernet to Serial port devices these new products are designed
to provide easy, fast and reliable connections between networked computers and devices
with serial ports- be it across the desk or across the world.

Brainboxes’
Ethernet to Serial range is the smart and cost-effective solution to securely
and remotely manage a wide range of serial accessories for various applications
in an organisation. It is based on Brainboxes’ proven and familiar technology
and of course comes with Brainboxes’ renowned lifetime support and lifetime
guarantee.

Brainboxes
has engineered its Ethernet to Serial devices to operate completely
autonomously. The new 4 and 8 port RS422/485 devices, as with the rest of the
range, will enable connection across a network with no loss of reliability or
signal integrity. Brainboxes’ Ethernet to Serial connectivity options are ideal
for installations such as refineries, large manufacturing plants and warehouses.

Brainboxes’
Ethernet to Serial products allow large quantities of information to be
transferred through each serial port coupled with a fast Ethernet connection.
The increased control and automation, through your existing network
infrastructure, can help you reduce your costs and improve efficiency whilst
our IP30 rated metal cases are strong enough for industrial applications, yet
smart enough for any office environment. All of which makes them perfect for a
wide and varied range of applications including: ATM machines, barcode
scanners, refrigeration and heating controls, medical devices, security
controls, weather stations and electronic key systems.

 

Eamonn Walsh, chairman of Brainboxes
says; “The ES-346 and ES-842 – Ethernet Serial Device Servers 4 and 8 RS422/485
ports- demonstrate our commitment to industrial networking and meet the needs
of customers controlling many devices, such as stepper motors, on the factory
floor.”

 

The
Ethernet to Serial range comes with Microsoft signed drivers for 32-bit &
64-bit versions of Windows 7, Vista, Server 2008, Server 2003, XP and Windows
2000.
