GC Enhanced XPort - Serial to Ethernet Embedded Device Server (EDS)

Building on the strengths of the XPort - Serial to Ethernet RJ45 EDS, the Grid Connect Enhanced firmware version adds configuration flexibility and improved email triggers to a networked serial device design. The GC Enhanced firmware XPort supports multiple TCP connections, DNS addressing, and allows for mixed TCP and UDP access to the serial port. Add expanded remote notification capabilities with the updated email serial trigger capabilities included in the GC Enhanced XPort.

The GC Enhanced XPort - Serial to Ethernet RJ45 EDS is a compact and cost effective hardware/software solution for adding networking to any device with a serial interface. Powered by a DSTini-EX enhanced 16-bit x86 class processor, the XPort is an integrated solution offering a complete device server application with a full IP stack and web server. All of this functionality is contained within the body of a single 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet RJ45 connector.

The GC Enhanced XPort is designed to support one serial port with data rates up to 921 Kbps. Additionally, an extended temperature range of -40° to + 85°C makes the GC Enhanced XPort ideal for a wide range of environmental applications. With virtually no need to write additional software, the XPort can reduce development costs and shorten time to market while adding robust networking capabilities to a serial device.

 

The built-in web server allows for custom designed web pages that interface with the device for remote configuration and monitoring. Additionally, three Programmable I/O pins can be used as general purpose inputs or outputs with expanded email triggers.
