UEI-RSS Serial Server makes PowerDNx serial devices accessible as standard Windows or Linux serial ports

The new RSS not only allows users to expand the number of standard serial ports available on a single PC, it also allows these ports to be mounted remotely. Using UEI’s standard chassis, the ports may be located up to 100 meters from the host; while utilizing the Fiber interface cubes, the serial ports may be up to 20 kM from the host. The UEI-RSS Serial Server is included with the purchase of UEI’s DNx-SL-501, and DNx-SL-508 devices. The setup and operation of the UEI-RSS is quick and easy, allowing the user to install the application, assign devices to ports, and save configurations in a matter of minutes. The status window displays each port’s status and incoming/outgoing traffic. Status for each port is updated once a second. The UEI-RSS runs as standard communications ports in Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 (32- and 64-bit), and Linux. With the UEI-RSS Serial Server, UEI continues its mission to provide the most innovative data acquisition and control solutions in the marketplace.
