INTRODUCTION
IPEX
PH232Ex2
bidirectional communication terminal server/client is a simple solution for
connecting serial devices to a network which results in having 2 RS-232 serial ports over Ethernet
network. This converter uses transparent communicate protocol, so it is not required to understand
complex Ethernet TCP/IP protocol, and no modification in serial programs is needed. It operates as a
Real COM, TCP Server, TCP Client, UDP Server and UDP Client Full-Duplex converter and supports
bidirectional connection.
PH232Ex2
is designed for industrial usage and is useful for connecting any device with a serial
interface to a computer via Ethernet supported network like LAN, WAN … and can be used in
Industrial Automation, Telecommunications, SCADA Systems, DCS Systems ….
Protection against Surge, ESD and EMI is implemented in its design and it has 3kV insulation
between Ethernet and RS-232 sides. Furthermore, all the RS-232 ports are insulated from each
other too.
