Digi ConnectPort® TS 8 MEI: Secure serial-to-Ethernet integration
The Digi ConnectPort® TS 8 MEI (Multi-Electrical Interface) provides secure and easy integration of virtually any serial device into wired Ethernet networks. Ideal for demanding applications such as automation, robotic control, centralized device monitoring and management, data acquisition and point-of-sale applications.
Flexible integration for demanding applications
The Digi ConnectPort® TS 8 MEI offers advanced access control, management and configuration features to meet critical infrastructure security requirements. The integrated Python environment enables device-level application development and customization for full control over device connectivity and data manipulation.
Efficient configuration and management
Configuration and management of the Digi ConnectPort® TS 8 MEI is easily accomplished via an integrated and secure web user interface or a powerful command line interface option. With SNMPv2 support, the devices can be seamlessly integrated into centralized network management systems.
The Digi ConnectPort® TS MEI implements Digi’s patented RealPort® COM port redirection software, which provides local serial port functionality and supports both host-initiated and device-initiated RealPort connection modes. SSH, SSL, TCP and UDP connectivity are also supported for each port
