The Moxa NPort 5150 is a compact and powerful 1-port serial device server designed to instantly network-enable your legacy serial devices. It provides a seamless and cost-effective solution for connecting equipment with RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 interfaces, such as payment terminals and card readers, directly to your IP-based Ethernet LAN. This versatility eliminates the need for multiple device types, simplifying your network infrastructure and reducing costs. Its small footprint allows for easy installation in tight spaces, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
Engineered for maximum compatibility and ease of use, the NPort 5150 supports a broad range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS, through its Real COM/TTY drivers. This allows your existing software to communicate with serial devices over a TCP/IP network without any modification, preserving your software investment. The device server offers versatile operation modes, including TCP Server, TCP Client, and UDP, ensuring it can be configured to meet the specific needs of your application. This adaptability makes it a truly flexible tool for network integration.
Configuration and management are streamlined through multiple intuitive interfaces, including a web browser, Telnet console, or the user-friendly Windows utility. For enhanced network management and troubleshooting, the NPort 5150 supports SNMPv1, allowing you to monitor all units and receive automatic trap messages or email alerts for user-defined errors. This proactive monitoring helps maintain network uptime and simplifies maintenance tasks, ensuring reliable operation.
In critical environments where signal integrity is paramount, the NPort 5150 includes adjustable pull high/low resistors and termination resistors for RS-485 communication. This feature helps prevent signal reflection and corruption, ensuring stable and error-free data transmission. Housed in a rugged metal casing with options for desktop, wall, or DIN-rail mounting, the NPort 5150 is built for durability and deployment flexibility, backed by a solid 5-year warranty for complete peace of mind.
