The NET232+CC is a serial to Ethernet device server, especially designed for use with equipment following the Cisco® RJ45 console port pinout. The NET232+CC provides remote access over Ethernet TCP/IP to routers, switches, servers, and other equipment that have a serial RJ45 console port or management port. Any Cisco equipment that uses the Cisco 72-3383-01 (DB-9 to RJ45) Console Cable can use the NET232+CC.
Connecting products to the Internet of Things (IoT) is essential to manufacturers looking to stay competitive within their industry. Adding IoT capabilities gives consumers more features.
Power considerations need to be made when connecting a product to the IoT. Products already using a wall outlet will not have an issue. Manufacturers of products not using a wall outlet will have to consider how their power source will affect their product’s design.
Connecting products to the Internet of Things (IoT) is essential to manufacturers looking to stay competitive within their industry. Adding IoT capabilities gives consumers more features. It also allows the manufacturer to stay connected with their customer while discovering new product use cases and applications that open them up to new revenue streams.
Serial Device Servers transfer data between a serial port and an Ethernet network. Some of the most common serial interfaces are RS232 (typically DB9) and RS485 (typically 2 wire). The most common Ethernet protocol used in serial device servers is TCP/IP.
xPico is a networking solution that enables Ethernet connectivity on any serial interface. This little, chip sized xPico is the smallest embedded device server in the world. It is a complete device server with a full IP stack and web server. It supports serial data rates up to 921Kbps and has the same functionality and user interface of the xPort.
What is an industrial network driven on? What will prepare a network for the future? Microprocessors are the “Heart of the Network,” according to Jim Montague, executive editor at Putman Media. “Heart of the Network,” featuring our own Mike Justice, is the featured publication in the fourth quarter 2011 edition of Industrial Networking.
Today we are announcing the gridARMtm, System on a Chip, with integrated Gigabit Ethernet. The gridARM is targeted at the low cost embedded marketplace where cost and performance are important. The cost for quantity 100 pieces is $10 each.
All wireless technologies and frequencies are not created equal. Most of us have been programmed that bigger is always better, so when it comes to looking at wireless radios you think, why wouldn’t 2.4 or 5.8 GHz be better then 900 MHz. This isn’t always the case with wireless spectrums.
