MOXA NPort 5610-8-DTL-T Serial to Ethernet Device Server

MOXA NPort 5610-8-DTL-T INTRODUCTION

NPort 5600-8-DT device servers can conveniently and transparently connect 8 serial devices to an Ethernet network, allowing you to network your existing serial devices with only basic configuration. You can both centralize the management of your serial devices and distribute management hosts over the network. Since the NPort 5600-8-DT device servers have a smaller form factor compared to our 19-inch models, they are a great choice for applications that need additional serial ports, but for which mounting rails are not available.

Convenient Design for RS-485 Applications

The NPort® 5650-8-DTL device servers support selectable 1 kilo-ohm and 150 kilo-ohms pull high/low resistors and a 120-ohm terminator. In some critical environments, termination resistors may be needed to prevent the reflection of serial signals. When using termination resistors, it is also important to correctly set the pull high/low resistors so that the electrical signal is not corrupted. Since no set of resistor values is universally compatible with all environments, NPort® 5600-8-DTL device servers use DIP switches to allow users to adjust termination and pull high/low resistor values manually for each serial port.

LED Indicators to Ease Your Maintenance Tasks

The System LED, Serial Tx/Rx LEDs, and Ethernet LEDs (located on the RJ45 connector) are great tools for basic maintenance tasks and help engineers analyze problems in the field. The NPort® 5600’s LEDs indicate the current system and network status and help field engineers monitor the status of attached serial devices.
