The Moxa CN2600 Series offers highly reliable 8- and 16-port terminal servers for industrial serial device networking. Designed for maximum uptime, they support RS-232/422/485 connections and offer dual Ethernet interfaces and optional dual AC inputs to guarantee both network and power redundancy.
Featuring Redundant COM mode, the CN2600 sends duplicate packets over two LAN connections simultaneously. If one connection fails, data transmission continues via the second LAN. With dual-host support, two separate PCs can communicate with the device, providing host-level failover capability.
Drivers and support are available for Windows, Linux, UNIX, macOS, and Android, making these devices extremely flexible. With strong encryption protocols and full SNMP/HTTPS/SSH support, the CN2600 series integrates seamlessly into secure and managed industrial networks.
