Serial-to-Ethernet Device Servers
The NPort® IA5150 and IA5250 device servers each have two Ethernet
ports that can be used as Ethernet switch ports. One port connects
directly to the network or server, and the other port can be connected

IA5000 Series
1 and 2-port serial device servers for industrial automation
NPort® IA device servers provide easy and reliable serial-to-Ethernet
connectivity for industrial automation applications. The device servers
can connect any serial device to an Ethernet network, and to ensure
compatibility with network software, they support a variety of port
operation modes, including TCP Server, TCP Client, and UDP. The
rock-solid reliability of the NPort® IA device servers makes them
an ideal choice for establishing network access to RS-232/422/485
serial devices such as PLCs, sensors, meters, motors, drives, barcode
readers, and operator displays. All models are housed in a compact,
rugged housing that is DIN-rail mountable.
to another NPort® IA device server or another Ethernet device. The
dual Ethernet ports help reduce wiring costs by eliminating the need to
connect each device to a separate Ethernet switch.
