Features
- Programmable: Built on the uClinux embedded operating system, enabling the development of customized software. Free Software Development Kit available.
- Flexible: 2, 4 or 8 RS-232 or software selectable RS-232/422/485 ports with independent port configuration (data bits of 5, 6, 7 or 8; stop bits of 1, 1.5 or 2, with or without parity).
- Protocol options: Numerous application modes and protocols available, including Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) and Raw TCP.
- Easy to Use: Easy configuration over a serial interface or dynamically using Telnet with extensive subsystem administration capabilities with HTTP.
- Speed: Real data transfer speeds between 50 bps and 230.4 Kbps per port for 4 and 8 port RS-232 models, up to 460.8 Kbps for RS-422/485 and 2-port RS-232.
- Performance: Built around a ColdFire CPU featuring 16MB SDRAM, 2MB or 4MB Flash, quad UARTs and a Linux core.
Overview
Network enable all your serial devices with the Blue Heat/Net Ethernet-to-serial device. Our four and eight port RS-232 or software selectable RS-232/422/485 models enable you to locate COM ports exactly where you want them, eliminating the need for a dedicated, physical PC connection. Remotely control your serial peripherals from any workstation connected to your Ethernet LAN or via the internet. This Ethernet-to-serial device helps you cut equipment costs, while eliminating the time required to maintain and collect information from individual workstations or out in the field. The Blue Heat/Net Ethernet-to-serial device 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 LAN interface, and features baud rates up to 460.8 Kbps per port. Each port is independently configurable, and software customization 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 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.
All Connect Tech Ethernet-to-serial devices include lifetime warranty and free technical support.
All Blue Heat/Net four and eight port DB-9 models are UL Listed and IECEE certified. Link to CB Scheme.
Industrial protocol, Power over Ethernet (PoE) and industrial temperature grade Ethernet-to-serial option models also available.
