Product Description

NDAA Compliant Product

The NET485 Enhanced Serial to Ethernet Adapter is the latest version of the NET485, featuring advanced firmware for improved network performance and reliability.As an economical yet powerful RS485 Ethernet Communication Module, the NET485 Enhanced delivers high-performance serial-to-Ethernet connectivity for industrial applications.

Enhancement Areas

  • Additional DNS support
  • Multiple TCP connections
  • Email authentication and serial triggers
  • Idle gap time
  • UDP datagram

The NET485 Enhanced Industrial Ethernet to Serial Gateway enables seamless integration of RS422 and RS485 transceivers into a TCP/IP network, eliminating traditional serial communication barriers. By providing Ethernet communication for serial devices, the NET485 Enhanced removes cable length restrictions, allowing secure remote serial networking. With the NET485 Enhanced RS485 to Ethernet Device Server, users can access and control serial devices from anywhere on the network, enabling remote RS485 networking.

The NET485 Enhanced TCP/IP to RS485 Converter supports installations up to 4,000 feet from the host device, making it ideal for industrial automation and remote monitoring. By using serial tunneling technology, two NET485 Enhanced adapters can create a secure TCP/IP to RS485 link, effectively replacing physical serial cables over a local network or the internet.

Supporting RS485 two-wire half-duplex mode, the NET485 Enhanced Serial to Ethernet Adapter enables multi-drop networking, allowing multiple devices to communicate over a single connection. A built-in web server allows for customized web pages. Serial cable wiring is attached using the labelled screw terminals on the removable terminal block. Power is by an external DC voltage that is connected to the terminal block.

The NET485 Enhanced Industrial Ethernet to Serial Gateway is a versatile solution for applications requiring device server functionality, offering secure remote serial networking. Designed for harsh environments, the NET485 Enhanced Serial to Ethernet Adapter supports a wide temperature range, making it ideal for commercial and industrial applications.
