4-Ch. Serial Server Card

4-Channel RS232/422/485 Serial Server (TC3847-1)

Compact and simple to configure, the TC3847-1 Serial Server transports four channels of RS-232 or RS-422/RS-485 data over existing Layer 2/Layer 3 networks. Each channel is independent, so it is possible to mix RS-232 and RS-422/RS-485. The TC3847-1 supports point-to-point serial tunneling and serial server configurations on a per port basis. For serial tunneling configurations, RS-232 or RS-422/RS-485 signals are transparently extended over IP networks. For serial server configurations, individual or multiple users can access their serial devices through the TC3847-1 over their network.

Applications

Typical applications centered around transporting serial data over IP networks.

For example the TC3847-1 is often used in Utility, SCADA, Traffic Control and Process Control Networks to link RS-232 or RS-485 RTUs and PLCs to a Host CPU.
