Product Description:
The Digi One SP device server easily allows any device with a serial port to connect to the Ethernet. The compact design of the Digi One SP delivers cost-effective performance and capability in one of the smallest form factors available.Part of Digi's broad device server offering, the Digi One SP delivers standard serial-to-Ethernet connectivity and is ideal for serial tunneling applications or applications where COM ports, TCP Socket, UDP Socket, or UDP Multicast functionality is needed. Serial tunneling allows two previously non-networked and isolated devices to easily communicate information and operate with existing installed software applications on an Ethernet network, instead of a long serial cable. The Digi One SP also works with software applications using TCP/UDP Sockets allowing a serial device to interoperate with the software applications without the need to install a driver.The Digi One SP is easy to install locally or remotely through a variety of IP addressing methods (DHCP, RARP, ARP-Ping) along with an application (included on the installation CD that accompanies the product) that will automatically detect all Digi One SP devices on your network. Also included is a quick-start guide that supports making the network configuration of the product easy and hassle-free.
