Lantronix UD2100001-01 UDS2100 I-Comm Terminal Server

<p>

Remotely Monitor, Manage and Share Equipment Over the Net

The UDS family of device servers enables users to connect, manage and control just about any piece of equipment with a serial port from virtually anywhere over Ethernet or the Internet.

With the UDS2100, two pieces of equipment of virtually any type can be added to an Ethernet network in a matter of minutes! This dual-port device server is a quick, simple and inexpensive way to bring the advantages of remote management and control to equipment not currently connected to a network.

Extending Serial Communications Across the Globe

Our approach to network-enabling devices is transparent to your attached equipment and software so you won’t need to change the way you work. Using a method called serial tunneling, the UDS2100 encapsulates serial data into packets and transports it over Ethernet. Serial tunneling can be done in two ways:

• Using Lantronix supplied Com Port Redirector software, Windows® device applications not designed for network communications are re-directed to communicate to devices connected to the UDS2100.
• Connecting two UDS2100 device servers configured to automatically talk to each other over the network creates virtual serial connections that can extend serial communications across a facility or around the world.

The built-in web server enables users to access and configure the UDS2100 from a standard web browser. Using Lantronix development tools, users can build web pages to customize the UDS2100 for unique applications.

On-board Flash memory provides room for future system software upgrades and maintenance-free, nonvolatile web page storage.

Easy to Set Up and Use

The UDS2100 can be set up locally through its serial port, or remotely using Telnet or a web browser. The included DeviceInstaller Windows-based configuration software simplifies setup and provides an easy way to:

• Assign IP & other network specific addresses
• Load custom web pages
• Enable web-based configuration of the device server
• Ping or query the attached device(s) over the network
• View specific device data files
• Upgrade firmware
