Moxa’s NPort 5200 Series provides a simple and effective way to make RS-232/422/485 serial devices network-ready. With two serial ports and support for TCP Server, TCP Client, and UDP modes, these compact device servers allow seamless integration of serial equipment into Ethernet networks—ideal for PLCs, meters, and industrial sensors.

Real COM and TTY drivers ensure backward compatibility with existing Windows and Linux applications. In addition, features like ADDC (automatic data direction control) for RS-485, metal housing, wide input voltage, and SNMP support make these device servers reliable solutions for industrial automation environments.
