The Model 2120 Single Port Terminal Server (see Figure 1) provides a
quick, easy to use solution for connecting traditional RS-232 terminals
and devices to the Local Ethernet/IP Network. The Model 2120 can also
function as a very cost effective single port remote access server. Serial
asynchronous device connectivity across the LAN is provided using Tel-
net/TCP, Raw-TCP, SLIP, or PPP protocols. The versatile and feature-rich
Model 2120 can literally be used in thousands of different applications
and environments, including:
• Factory floor machinery
• Security systems
• Printers
• Scales
• Barcode scanners
• Various instruments
• Climate control systems
• ASCII terminals
• Vending machines
• Cash registers and other point-of-sale (POS) devices
• RS-232 control/console ports (PBX, switches, etc.)
