Moxa NPort 5150 (EU) 1 port RS-232/422/485 Serial

Serial device servers bridge legacy RS-232/422/485 equipment to modern Ethernet networks, and the Moxa NPort 5150 delivers this with a single DB9 male port and auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps connectivity. Its standout strength is flexible power input (12-48 VDC) combined with a rugged metal housing and 15 kV ESD protection, making it ideal for industrial environments.

Advantages

The NPort 5150 simplifies integration with Real COM, TCP Server/Client, UDP, and Pair Connection modes. Configuration is straightforward via web console, Telnet, or Windows utility. With baud rates up to 921.6 kbps and support for 5-8 data bits, 1-2 stop bits, and multiple parity options, it adapts to virtually any serial device. Flow control (RTS/CTS, XON/XOFF) and 1.5 kV Ethernet isolation ensure reliable data transfer.
