Asked by Leo Dickson on Dec 11, 2021 FAQ



Serial to Ethernet Converters. IOLAN Serial Device Servers enable you to easily connect any equipment with an RS232, RS422 or RS485 serial port to Ethernet. And, with Perle's innovative TrueSerial® technology you also get authentic serial communications across the Ethernet.
Additionally,
A serial connection is a layer 1 connection, which is defined as a physical connection. Ethernet, is a data link protocol, the protocol data unit defined as “frame”.
Also, A Serial to Ethernet converter, also called a serial device server, is a very useful device for accessing a serial device over a local LAN network or even over the Internet. The Serial to Ethernet converter converts a serial RS232, RS485 or RS422 signal to a packet sized data signal which can be sent over any Ethernet network.
In respect to this,
A Ethernet port is a jack or socket on a computer that allows the use of an Ethernet connector. These ports are essential in allowing the creation of local area networks (LANs).
And,
The USB port is located on the rear of the machine.
