Device servers, print servers and WLAN modules for professional network integration

USB Device Servers (SX Series) The SX series connects USB devices (USB 2.0/3.0) to the network over Ethernet – printers, scanners, dongles, USB storage and instruments are provided transparently as local USB devices. Supports up to 4 USB ports, Windows/Mac/Linux drivers, management via web interface. Print Servers & Network Printer Adapters Silex print servers connect USB or parallel printers to the network, enabling shared printer use without a dedicated PC. Compatible with all common print protocols (LPR, IPP, RAW), with Windows drivers and web management included.
Serial Device Servers (DS Series) DS device servers connect RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 devices (machinery, automation equipment, instruments) over Ethernet to the network or control system. Supports virtual COM port drivers, Modbus-TCP and industrial communication protocols for automation integration. WLAN Embedded Modules (OEM) Silex WLAN modules (SX-PCEAN, SX-W245D) for OEM integration in printers, instruments, medical devices and industrial automation. IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, WPA2/WPA3 encryption, serial or USB interface to the host system, CE/FCC certified for worldwide deployment.

Why Silex Technology?


Technical strengths for professional network integration

USB-over-IP: Network-Transparent Device Connectivity
Silex USB device servers use the USB-over-IP protocol – USB devices appear on any client PC as locally connected without requiring driver modifications. Ideal for dongle management, USB licence tokens and distributed USB peripherals.
Industrial-Grade WLAN Modules for OEM
Silex WLAN modules are designed for integration into industrial devices, printing systems and medical technology – CE/FCC certified, built for continuous operation and equipped with stable drivers for all common operating systems.
Retrofit Legacy Serial Devices to the Network
Machines and devices with RS-232/422/485 interfaces can be integrated into modern TCP/IP networks via Silex DS device servers without hardware modification. Virtual COM port drivers provide transparent communication with existing software.
Proven Reliability in Continuous Operation
Silex products are designed for 24/7 continuous operation and are actively deployed across logistics, healthcare and manufacturing. Long product support periods and stable firmware updates protect investments over the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions about Silex Technology


Answers for procurement and system integration

How does a Silex USB device server work and which USB devices are supported? A Silex USB device server connects USB devices (printers, scanners, dongles, storage, instruments) to the network via Ethernet. Using the Silex client software (Windows/Mac/Linux), users can connect and disconnect USB devices over the network – the device appears locally as if directly attached. Most USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 devices are supported, except devices with hard real-time requirements such as webcams.
Are Silex WLAN modules suitable for integration in medical devices? Yes. Silex offers OEM WLAN modules specifically suited for integration in medical technology and regulated environments. The modules are CE and FCC certified, support WPA2/WPA3 encryption and can be configured for specific frequency bands. Silex also supports OEM customers with technical guidance for certification processes.
Can Silex device servers be used for connecting serial industrial machines (RS-485)? Yes. Silex DS device servers support RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 – including multi-drop RS-485 buses with multiple participants. Virtual COM port drivers under Windows and Linux enable transparent operation of existing serial software without modification. Modbus-TCP support facilitates integration into PLC environments and SCADA systems.
