A Serial Ethernet Adapter might take many different forms and will be able to perform any of the functions below. It will not only provide remote connection to serial devices. It will also give the user the possibility to:

Each connected device can be accessed directly over the local network, via router, a WAN or (if enabled) through the Internet.

EDW100 Serial To Ethernet Converter

Features Include:
  • Serial communication, RS-232 or RS-422/485
  • Termination of RS-422/485 and fail safe functionality
  • Ethernet 10/100 BaseT
  • Packing algorithm
  • Diagnostic information via Telnet and 10 LEDs

  • Auto MDI/MDI-X
  • Two levels of password for configuration
  • Redundant power and wide DC input range
  • The EDW-100 is an is an Industrial Ethernet to serial adapter or Ethernet Terminal Server, designed for industrial use in harsh environments. The unit use standard TCP/IP protocols together with serial equipment, it allows almost any serial devices to interface through a new or existing Ethernet network. Two EDW-100 units can be used to create a simple point to point link or multiple units can be linked to form a one to many application all using Ethernet as the medium to transport the data. A point to point application can be configured with both UDP and TCP, if TCP is used the unit can act both as a client or as a server. Configuration of the unit is simple using theWeb-tool or via Telnet. It is also possible to configure speed and duplex via DIP-switch, this setting can be override by the Web-tool.

    A special adjusted 2 port licence of the virtual COM-software, Serial/IP from Tactical Software, are included with EDW-100 and EDW-120. If there is a requirement for more than two ports, a new licence must be ordered from Westermo. Note that the new licence can not be based on the delivered 2 port licence. Possible options are 4, 8, 16, 24 or 48 ports. For price information, please contact Westermo.

    In a point to point application the EDW-100 can be to replace or extend a cable link. The distance between the EDW-100 units is only limited by the size of the LAN. Data can be sent across the network using ether UDP or TCP. If TCP is used EDW-100 can be configured both as a client and a server. A typical application would be a SCADA or Data logging application interrogating a sensor or PLC.

    • Configuration via web interface and DIP switches
    • Comprehensive diagnostics
    • Virtual COM port emulation software supplied
    The EDW-120 is a serial to Ethernet converter designed for use in harsh industrial environments allowing two RS-232 serial devices to communicate via TCP/IP Ethernet networks. As well as supporting UDP, TCP client and TCP server connections the EDW-120 also has an array of special modes allowing the unit to be used in a wide range of complex applications. Configuration is via web interface and by DIP switch. DIP switches allow the Ethernet connection to be fixed if auto-negotiation is not possible. The web interface which is password protected for security allows all other settings to be configured remotely. It is also possible to connect and configure the IP address locally via the serial port.

    A special adjusted 2 port licence of the virtual COM-software, Serial/IP from Tactical Software, are included with EDW-100 and EDW-120. If there is a requirement for more than two ports, a new licence must be ordered from Westermo. Note that the new licence can not be based on the delivered 2 port licence. Possible options are 4, 8, 16, 24 or 48 ports.

    • Galvanic isolation and enhanced surge/transient protection
    • DIP-switches for:
      • Speed, duplex and Auto-negotiation
      • Flow control
      • Link fault forward
    • Auto MDI/MDI-X
    • Extended temperature range –25°C to +70°C
    • Redundant power and wide DC input range
    The MCW-211 is an Industrial Ethernet FX/TX Media Converter. The MCW-211 convert data between Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX and 100 Base-FX. The unit is easy to use and install caused by auto-negotiation of speed and duplex and auto-crossover and auto-polarity on 10 Mbit/s. The media converter is be transparent for large frames (VLAN or QoS). It is also possible to set speed, duplex and flow control via DIP-switches. The FX side supports Far-End-Fault indication. A link fault from either side shall be forwarded to the other side, Link Fault Forwarding. Via DIP-switches it is possible to control if both sides or just one (either) side supports LFF. MCW-211 has a wide DC power input range with polarity protection and redundant power from dual sources. With extended temperature range supported as standard the MCW-211 is designed to be used the harshest environments.
