Serial to Ethernet Technology Overview
Korenix JetPort serial device servers provide perfect solution to manage serial devices via
Ethernet in flexible ways, such as TCP server, TCP client, UDP, or Windows virtual COM.
JetPort creates a transparent gateway for the serial communication to Ethernet. If the control
program uses network standard API, you can choose TCP or UDP as the communication
protocol. If the control program uses COM port, you can install the Windows driver to add virtual
COM ports.
