Flexibility and Scalability
In the traditional industrial environment, because of the restrictions
affecting RS-232/422/485, serial devices had to be controlled or
monitored by a nearby host PC; integration then had to be performed
between the host PCs. This excessive dispersal of data made it difficult
to perform data integration. Today, with the introduction of the Ethernet
Data Gateway family, the user can simultaneously control and monitor
many different types of remote and nearby serial devices using just one
PC. Not only does this save on costs, it also makes it easy to make
decisions rapidly. For example, each PC running Windows NT can control
up to 255 real COM ports, and each COM port can be connected to
many different serial devices, thereby increasing the benefits to the
company.
Cost-effective network solution
The Ethernet Data Gateway family immediately upgrades your existing
devices for the Ethernet. It’s no longer necessary to change your S/W
and H/W. Therefore, Ethernet Data Gateway family is not only protecting
your current hardware investment but also ensuring future network
expandability. Unlike traditional multi-port slot boards, the standalone
Advantech Ethernet Data Gateway family operates independently on the
local area network (LAN). It does not require a PC host’s slot, IRQ or
memory resources. There is no longer the need to keep and maintain
an extra PC for added serial devices or upgraded performance. When
additional devices are required, the standalone Advantech Slim Server
solutions attach to the Ethernet network, saving you time and money by
being a total solutions system.
