The Moxa NPort 5200 Series is a compact and high-performance solution for networking up to two serial devices over Ethernet. Supporting RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 (depending on the model), it’s ideal for connecting PLCs, sensors, and measurement devices to IP-based networks. Installation is quick, and once configured, users can access devices remotely via TCP/IP protocols – perfect for decentralized industrial or building automation.

Real COM/TTY drivers allow existing serial software to operate over the network without modification. Key features such as COM port grouping, ADDC for RS-485, built-in surge protection, and robust metal housing make it ideal for demanding industrial environments.
