Blue Heat/Net 16
More Information
Remotely access devices with the Blue Heat/Net 16 Ethernet-to-serial device. Directly connect devices to your Ethernet LAN via 16 software selectable RS-232/422/485 ports.
Remote access not only frees your devices from a physical connection increasing location flexibility, but also simplifies future installations or upgrades and reduces cabling costs. All Blue Heat/Net Ethernet-to-serial devices can be configured and controlled via serial interface, or remotely via Telnet or web-based HTTP.
Blue Heat/Net includes an auto-sensing 10/100 Ethernet interface and can achieve data speeds up to 460.8 Kbps per port. Ports are independently configurable and software customization is a breeze. Based on the uClinux embedded operating system, this Ethernet-to-serial device offers programmers a familiar Linux API. Connect Tech includes a full range of open source development tools via its free Software Development Kit. You can create customized protocols and download them directly to the on-board Flash memory, making the Blue Heat/Net one of the most flexible Ethernet-to-serial products on the market.
Industrial protocol, Power over Ethernet (PoE) and industrial temperature grade Ethernet-to-serial options also available on select models.
