3-1. SI-60 Overview and Features
SI-60 is a communication converter to convert asynchronous communications for
devices equipped with the RS-232C interface to TCP/IP or UDP/IP communications
on Ethernet LAN. Since the slide switch on the converter is designed for DTE/DCE
switchable, any devices can be connected to the RS-232C side.
The following chart shows the internal structure of the converter.
