You could search far and wide and never find a more cost-effective, small profile solution for standard serial-to-Ethernet connectivity than the ESS-1. It is ideal for applications requiring data support for both RS-232 and RS-422 communications. The ESS-1 provides Ethernet connectivity to any device with a serial port, and is ideal for serial tunneling or applications where a COM port, TCP Socket, UDP Socket, or UDP Multicast functionality is needed. Serial bridging/tunneling will let two previously non-networked devices to easily communicate information and operate with existing installed software applications on an Ethernet network. The ESS-1 also works with software applications using TCP/UDP Sockets, allowing a serial device to interoperate with the software applications without the need to install a driver.

The ESS-1 is simple to install locally or remotely through most web browsers. The included "Device Installer" utility application will automatically detect all ESS-1 devices on your network. The small profile packaging of the ESS-1 makes installation hassle-free.
