Unmanaged Ethernet Switches
Compact, plug-and-play industrial Ethernet switches route data to specific devices, reducing overall LAN traffic. These switches offer a wide variety of copper and fiber options, plus PoE and Gigabit
Managed Ethernet Switches
Industrial grade, managed Ethernet switches route traffic with intelligence. These switches are built for redundancy and offer Gigabit Ethernet solutions.
Ethernet Extenders
Extend Ethernet to impossible locations in your existing infrastructure over a pair of unused copper wire.
Ethernet Media Converters
These industrial media converters offer copper-to-fiber solution for long distance runs and noise immunity. The EIR102 series features fiber-to-fiber solutions as well.
Ethernet Serial Device Servers
Serial servers connect legacy serial equipped machines to your Ethernet LAN or WAN. Serial data from devices in far corners of your plant show up on your office PC as if they were next door.
Wireless Serial Device Servers
Easy, reliable connection of new and legacy serial devices to your WiFi Ethernet LAN
Ethernet Gateways
Ethernet enable Modbus serial ports on industrial equipment. These servers translate Modbus/TCP to Modbus/ASCII/RTU allowing devices such as PLCs to communicate with sensors, meters, instruments and similar devices. These serial servers offer a wide variety of fiber options.
