Description

This compact Ethernet-to-serial device is designed to operate under the harsh conditions found on the factory floor, or wherever rugged, reliable communications are required. Offering 2 ports of software selectable RS-232/422/485 connectivity, the Blue Heat/Net 2 can locate COM ports anywhere on your Ethernet LAN allowing you to remotely control your serial peripherals from any connected workstation or via the internet from anywhere in the world.

The Blue Heat/Net 2 is designed to be wall or DIN rail mounted, and operates within an Industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C (-40°F to 185°F). It offers flexible DC power input from 5V DC to 30V DC, and optional Power over Ethernet (PoE) and screw terminal power connectors. It also includes MDI/MDIX auto-detect so you can use straight through or crossover Ethernet cables.

The Blue Heat/Net 2 eliminates the need for a dedicated PC, cutting equipment expenses and eliminating the time required to maintain and collect information from individual workstations. The Blue Heat/Net can be configured and controlled via serial interface, or remotely via Telnet or web-based HTTP.

The Blue Heat/Net includes an auto-sensing 10Base-T, 100Base-TX LAN interface, and can achieve data speeds up to 460.8 Kbps per port. Each port is independently configurable, and customizing the Blue Heat/Net is a breeze. Based on the uClinux embedded operating system, the Blue Heat/Net offers programmers a familiar Linux API. Connect Tech includes a full range of open source development tools via its Software Development Kit, at no extra cost. 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.

The Blue Heat/Net is available in 4 and 8 port models.
