Ethernet Switch
 |
The Advantech EKI-2000 and EKI-7000 series of Industrial Ethernet solutions offer a wide range of transmission media options, including: copper, fiber optic and wireless. Data transmission rates can range from 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps to 1000Mbps, making the process of manufacturing data not just available at the field level, but also seamlessly integrated into higher-level data acquisition systems. Advantech’s EKI-7000 series X-Ring technology offers the fastest redundant ring recovery time (<10ms) to secure data communication and reliability. Furthermore, the robust design, DIN-rail mounting and +12~48 VDC redundant power inputs make EKI-2000/7000 suitable for rugged industrial applications.

Serial Device Server
 |
EKI-1000 Serial Device Servers enable RS-232/422/485 serial devices to be dual-connected to Ethernet switches for unrivaled reliability. No extra programming effort is required at the host computer, so software development costs can be saved. These Serial Device Servers provide various redundant configuration types and multi-access configurations for remotely controlling and monitoring serial devices via Ethernet. Furthermore, they fulfill various needs through rich operation modes, such as; COM port redirection, and TCP&UDP server/client.

Multiport Serial Cards
 |
Advantech's Multiport Serial Cards are designed to accommodate multiple high performance peripherals for field devices that use the RS-232/422/485 serial communication protocol. Each card requires only one PCI or ISA slot to provide independent serial channels. With industrial-grade protection, Advantech multiport serial cards help to avoid system damage in harsh environments.
