Ethernet to Serial devices first of a range of new products designed with industrial applications in mind

Liverpool
UK -19^th December 2012 Brainboxes, a leader in serial connectivity
and networking, has launched the first two products in new range of industrial
specification devices. 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. In addition the new ES-511 and ES-522 boast a host of
additional features that make them suitable for the tough industrial
environment.

As
factories expand and modernise older equipment and remote devices need to be
networked, but cabling can be expensive and impractical, especially over larger
areas. 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.

Performance,
power and temperature can be monitored remotely to make maintenance easier and
along with redundant dual power inputs for extra reliability. The input voltage
from +5V to +30V is ideal for the factory floor but allows configuring through
a USB port.

Brainboxes’ ‘Easy Wire’ feature
has removable numbered and colour coded screw terminal blocks for fast and
error free wiring. The slim ‘end on’ case with integral mount and ground clips
straight onto a DIN rail, perfect for when space is a premium. All the products
in our Industrial Range come are able to operate in a temperature range of
-30ºC to +80ºC.

Eamonn
Walsh, Managing Director of Brainboxes, says “Brainboxes’ decades of serial
port solution development brings serious expertise to the industrial market. We
have developed features that offer great usability and genuine answers to the
issues facing engineers on the factory floor”.
