NPort P5150A device servers are designed to make serial devices
network-ready in an instant. It is a PD device and is IEEE 802.3af
compliant, so it can by powered by a PoE PSE device without an
additional power supply. Use the NPort P5150A device servers to give
your PC software direct access to serial devices from anywhere on the
network. The NPort P5150A device servers are ultra lean, ruggedized, and
user friendly, making simple and reliable serial to Ethernet solutions
possible.
Surge-protected Serial, Ethernet, and Power Lines
Surge, which is typically caused by high voltages that result from
switching and lightning transients, is a common threat to all electrical
devices. Moxa's leading-edge surge immunity solution, which is applied
to the NPort P5150A's serial, power, and Ethernet lines, is tested and
proven compliant with IEC 61000-4-5. This state-of-the-art surge
protection provides a robust serial-to-Ethernet solution that can
protect electrical devices from voltage spikes and withstand
electrically noisy environmental conditions.
3-step Web-based Configuration
The NPort P5150A's 3-step web-based configuration tool is
straightforward and user-friendly. The NPort P5150A's web console guides
users through 3 simple configuration steps that are necessary to
activate the serial-to-Ethernet application. With this speedy 3-step
web-based configuration, a user only needs to spend an average of 30
seconds to complete the NPort settings and enable the application,
saving a great amount of time and effort.
Easy to Troubleshoot
NPort P5150A device servers support SNMP, which can be used to
monitor all units over Ethernet. Each unit can be configured to send
trap messages automatically to the SNMP manager when user-defined errors
are encountered. For users who do not use SNMP manager, an e-mail alert
can be sent instead. Users can define the trigger for the alerts using
Moxa's Windows utility, or the web console. For example, alerts can be
triggered by a warm start, a cold start, or a password change.
