What industrial users really need from Ethernet
As Ethernet moves from the office to the factory floor, it is important to incorporate additional features to ensure the integrity of the network, explains Tim Semple.
All of this makes Moxa NPort Express DE-211 more reliable and stable in industrial applications, such as information display board management, PLC control and administration, industrial Scada, measurement and monitoring systems, CNC machine management, medical/hospital/healthcare industry, factory automation, building automation, security/entrance control systems, and time/attendance control systems.
In addition, the Moxa NPort Express DE-211 comes with enhanced software that simplifies system integrators' programming tasks.
NPort Configurator is a revolutionary new management program that provides for easy IP configuration, including DHCP and MAC-IP mapping, and offers straightforward configuration management and fast deployment capabilities.
A friendly GUI management utility for Windows and user-configurable command mode are both supplied.
By using Moxa's own Windows native COM/Linux drivers, you can keep running existing COM-based software without changing your software under Windows and Linux operating systems.
In addition, MOXA NPort Express DE-211 provides versatile raw connection modes for sockets, such as TCP Server, TCP Client, UDP server/client, pair connection, and Ethernet Modem, making DE-211 a powerful and flexible tool for completing important projects.
