Cost-effective Solution for RS232/422/485 Serial-to-Industrial Ethernet Application:
PLANET ICS-2200T Serial Device Server is specially designed to convert RS232, RS422 or RS485 serial communication to Industrial Fast Ethernet networking so as to extend the network distance efficiently and inexpensively. There are two 10/100BASE-TX RJ45 ports available in the ICS-2200T for your network needs. The ICS-2200T is a time-saving and cost-effective solution for users and system integrators to quickly transform their serial devices into the Ethernet network with no need of replacing the existing serial devices and software system. Remote Management:
As the ICS-2200T provides an easy serial-to-Ethernet connectivity and connection to a TCP/IP network, the remote network system can thus be managed efficiently via its Web, telnet and VCOM management interfaces. It supports both application and serial operation modes for alarm or IP address connection, which saves the network administrator’s time in detecting and locating network problems without visual inspection of the cabling and devices.  Multiple connection options are available for large networking environment as well. Stable Performance under Difficult Environments:
The ICS-2200T provides a high level of immunity against electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found on plant floors or in curbside traffic control cabinets. Its operating temperature ranging from -40 to 75 degrees C allows the ICS-2200T to be placed in almost any difficult environment.  The ICS-2200T, equipped with compact IP30 standard metal case, allows either DIN-rail or wall mounting for efficient use of cabinet space.  The ICS-2200T also provides an integrated power supply source with a wide range of voltages (12 to 48V DC) ideally suitable for worldwide operation with high availability applications requiring dual or backup power inputs. Dual Power Input for High Availability Network System:
The ICS-2200T features a strong dual power input system with wide-ranging voltages (12V~48V DC) incorporated into customer’s automation network to enhance system reliability and uptime. In the example below, when Power Supply 1 fails to work, the hardware failover function will be activated automatically to keep powering the ICS-2200T via Power Supply 2 without any break of operation. Effective Alarm Alert for Better Protection:
The ICS-2200T comes with a Fault Alarm feature which can alert the users when there is something wrong with the Serial Device Server. With this ideal feature, the users would not have to waste time finding where the problem is. It will help to save time and human resource. The ICS-2200T provides event alert function to help to diagnose the abnormal device owing to whether or not there is a break of the network connection, or the rebooting response.

The NPort IA5000A-I/O serial device servers, which have built-in digital I/Os, provide maximum flexibility when you need to integrate serial equipment in the field with an Ethernet network or cloud platform. The cloud-ready device server can communicate with IIoT applications, using generic MQTT or third-party cloud services, such as Azure and Alibaba Cloud. The combination of digital I/Os makes the device servers well-suited for a variety of industrial data acquisition applications. The DI/Os on the device can be controlled over TCP/IP using the Modbus TCP protocol and can be configured and secured from a web browser. The device can also be installed as a COM Port (patented Real COM) on a Windows/Linux PC to make it compatible with legacy applications. All models are ruggedly constructed, DIN-rail mountable, and designed with redundant power inputs to ensure uninterrupted operation for industrial applications. Wireless Client:
The device servers are equipped with one Ethernet port that allows data to be transferred seamlessly between the serial line, LAN, and WAN, allowing the LAN and WLAN interfaces to be bridged together using a single IP address. Supports MTConnect Protocol for Monitoring Digital Inputs:
MTConnect is designed specifically for shop-floor applications that aim to convert shop-floor data into a standard format that can be understood by any MTConnect-compliant software applications. Once the data has been defined by an MTConnect-compliant interface (name, type, description, etc.), it eliminates the need to redefine the data within each application. For those legacy machine tools that do not support MTConnect, the common practice is to get machine-related data through sensor connections and I/Os. Moxa NPort IAW5000A-I/O supports MTConnect-enabled capability for all digital inputs on the device and provides a configurable interface for users to define what data and appropriate MTConnect tags need to be tied to the digital inputs. Secure Remote Management and Configuration with SSH/HTTPS:
Unauthorized access is one of the biggest headaches for system managers. In addition to IP filtering and password protection, the NPort IAW5000A-I/O Series also supports SSH and HTTPS to provide protection from hackers. To transmit control messages securely, open the web console using a web browser that supports HTTPS (Internet Explorer, for example). You may also open the serial or Telnet console, such as PuTTY, using a terminal emulator that supports SSH. Select Any Baudrate Between 50 bps and 921.6 kbps:
Most device servers only support a fixed number of serial baudrates. However, some applications require special baudrates, such as 250 kbps or 500 kbps. With the NPort IAW5000A-I/O Series, you can use any baudrate between 50 and 921.6 kbps. If your device’s baudrate is not a standard baudrate, select “other” from the drop-down list and then enter the baudrate.

  Overview: The NPort® W2150A and W2250A are the ideal choice for connecting your serial or Ethernet devices, such as PLCs, meters, and sensors, to a wireless LAN. Your communications software will be able to access the serial devices from anywhere over a wireless LAN. Moreover, the wireless device servers require fewer cables and are ideal for applications that involve difficult wiring situations. In Infrastructure Mode or Ad-Hoc Mode, the NPort® W2150A and NPort® W2250A can connect to Wi-Fi networks at offices and factories to allow users to move, or “roam,” between several APs (Access Points), and offer an excellent solution for devices that are frequently moved from place to place.   802.11a/b/g/n Wireless Connectivity to Serial Devices: Wireless device servers require fewer cables and are ideal for applications that involve difficult wiring situations. In Infrastructure Mode or Ad-Hoc Mode, the NPort® W2150A and NPort® W2250A can communicate with any host computer through an access point, or with another NPort® W2150A or NPort® W2250A located up to 100 meters away.   Wireless Fast Roaming Function: Wi-Fi networks at offices and factories allow users to move, or “roam,” between several APs (Access Points). Moxa’s Fast Roaming function increases the roaming speed to unify AP channels and avoid wasting channel hopping time while roaming.   Wireless Client: Data can be seamlessly transferred between the serial line, LAN, and WAN, allowing the LAN and WLAN interfaces to be bridged together with one IP address.   Offline Port Buffering and Serial Data Log for Each Port: For mission-critical applications, data from the serial device must not be lost if the wireless connection goes down. The NPort® W2150A and NPort® W2250A are designed to continue operating if the wireless connection is disconnected temporarily. If the wireless connection is restraining, or if the connection fails, the serial data from the serial device will be queued in the built-in port buffer with over 10 MB of storage. As soon as the wireless connection returns to normal, the data stored in the buffer will be sent to its destination. In addition, a serial data log can be enabled to make troubleshooting easier.   The serial data log buffer for both the NPort® W2150A and NPort® W2250A is 64 KB per port.   Secure Remote Management and Configuration with SSH/HTTPS: Unauthorized access is one of the biggest headaches for system managers. In addition to IP filtering and password protection, the NPort® W2150A and NPort® W2250A also support SSH and HTTPS to provide protection from hackers. To transmit control messages securely, open the web console using a web browser that supports https (Internet Explorer, for example). You may also open the serial or Telnet console, such as PuTTY, using a terminal emulator that supports SSH.   Select “Any Baudrate” between 50 bps and 921.6 kbps: Most device servers only support a fixed number of serial baudrates. However, some applications require special baudrates, such as 250 kbps or 500 kbps. With the NPort® W2150A and NPort® W2250A, you can enter any baudrate between 50 and 921.6 kbps.
