The Moxa CN2600 Series offers robust 8- and 16-port terminal servers supporting RS-232/422/485 communication and equipped with advanced redundancy features. These devices are purpose-built for industrial settings where uninterrupted serial-to-Ethernet communication is crucial.
Key highlights include dual LAN ports, each with a unique MAC/IP address, enabling Redundant COM mode – a mechanism where identical data packets are sent over both networks to prevent communication loss. Dual-host redundancy allows a second PC to seamlessly take over if the primary host fails. Selected models support dual AC power inputs for complete power fault tolerance.
The CN2600 series supports a wide range of platforms – from Windows and Linux to macOS, UNIX, and Android – and offers high-level security protocols like HTTPS, SNMPv3, SSH, and RADIUS. The metal enclosure, 19-inch rack form factor, and industrial certifications make it ideal for automation, utilities, intelligent transport systems, and infrastructure networks.
