ConnectPort LTS, wireless terminal server
Digi has introduced the ConnectPort LTS, a wireless programmable terminal server suitable for utilities, security, building automation, retail, industrial automation and healthcare applications.
The ConnectPort LTS provides serial-to-IP connectivity and optional ZigBee wireless communications.
This minimises equipment space requirements and reduces cost by combining a terminal server and wireless gateway in one device.
According to Digi, the ConnectPort LTS makes it easier and more cost effective for customers to access and manage their critical device information.
ConnectPort LTS serial servers deliver secure, reliable, flexible and cost-effective RS-232/422/485 serial-to-Ethernet connectivity and are available in eight-, 16- and 32-port options.
The wireless version features ZigBee communications, an internal modem and USB 2.0 ports for expandability.
All ConnectPort LTS serial servers include dual GB Ethernet for reliability, an SD memory slot for data storage and a large LCD screen for easy configuration, monitoring and diagnostics.
The Linux-based ConnectPort LTS is programmable with Python support and a software development kit.
Advanced software features include an IPv4/v6 dual stack, user port sharing, port logging, SSHv2 and SSL.
The ConnectPort LTS is available now for $1,283 (?813), and the wireless ConnectPort LTS W is available now for $1,511.
