NPort 6600 Series
Quick Installation Guide
Third Edition, June 2008
1. Overview
The NPort 6600 series of serial device servers includes 8-port, 16-port,
and 32-port models for connecting larger numbers of serial devices to
Ethernet. Some applications now also require better security when
transmitting data through a network. The NPort 6600 series of device
servers use DES, 3DES, and AES data encryption to provide secure
network communication.
