NetCom 813RM PRO

8 ports secure serial device server

 
NetCom 813RM PRO is an industrial-strength network-based serial device server for connecting one RS232/422/485 device like CNC, PLC, weighting scale, scanner and other devices directly to a network running TCP/IP.

NetCom 813RM PRO provides completely secured communication for configuration and to the attached serial device, this is implemented by openVPN tunnel software. Further a serial port can control a modem for Dial-In and -Out via PPP.

In addition to allowing serial devices to get networked, any host (PC Server or Workstation) without network access can also access remote serial device via adding NetCom devices to the existing serial port. NetCom 813RM PRO can be configured over Driver Panels, WEB Browser, serial Port, Telnet, SNMP and serves as a transparent serial channel without platform and distance limitation.

  I/O address

None

  Driver mode

VScom Driver for Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP and 2003, Vista
Driver Mode creates virtual Com port

  TCP Raw Server

Raw data transfer over TCP/IP. Accepts multiple incoming connections

  TCP Raw Client

Raw data transfer over TCP/IP. Connects to multiple hosts or devices waiting for incoming connections

  TCP Advanced Settings

Special settings for user-defined modes

  UDP Mode

Raw data transfer by UDP. The NetCom is client and server at the same time. Timeout functionality, maximum packet size and a configurable trigger string define the packets of incoming data to send over UDP

  Null Modem Tunnel

Connecting two NetCom used as virtual null modem cable

  IP Modem

The serial port emulates a standard modem. Operates by AT-commands, and dials to IP-Addresses instead of phone numbers. Windows "INF"-Driver provided for installation

  Print Server

The NetCom accepts print jobs, and spools them to the attached serial printer. Operates as of RFC1197, similar to the line printer daemon in Unix-systems

  PPP net

A Modem attached to a serial port provides Dial-In/-Out. This allows access to the serial ports without a dedicated Ethernet connection.

  Power requirements

100 - 240V AC 47-63 Hz, 25VA

  Dimension

258 x 149 x 45 mm (W×L×H)
278 x 155 x 46 mm with DB9 connector & DIN rail mounting kit
19" 1HU Rackmount

  Operating Temp

0°C - 55 °C

  Storage Temp

-20°C - 85°C

  Case

SECC sheet metal (1mm)

  Weight

1.9kg

  Installation

Configuration utility automatically finds NetCom devices in the network

  Operating mode

Automatic mode switching between Driver and TCP RAW mode. With TCP Advanced settings it is possible to configure the NetCom for using it in multiple modes, so it decides automatically which mode should be used

  PPP Access

Dial-In to a modem attached to a serial port using Point to Point Protocol. TCP/IP is transported over the serial line, allowing access to configuration and the serial ports, even without Ethernet. A Dial-Out option is also provided.

  Configuration

Configuration over Driver Panels, NetCom Manager, WEB Browser, serial console, Telnet, SNMP

  SNMP

special VScom MIB included

Domain Name Server support

  Serial interface

Serial Interface configurable with DIP switch and by software

  Firewall

Special precautions for Firewall environments

  Firmware

Firmware update over WEB Browser, Telnet, ComPort

  LEDs

LEDs for Power, serial Tx, Rx, Ethernet Link, Speed

  Password access

Every capabilities of configuration use the same password including SNMP V3

  Secure communication

OpenVPN tunnel provides security on Ethernet. The tunnel protects the configuration as well as all serial data. It is also usable across the Internet. Strong encryption by AES up to 256 bit keys

  EMC

FCC Class A, CE Class A

  Environment

RoHS
