Introduction
The NPort IA5000A-I/O serial device servers, which have built-in digital I/Os, provide maximum flexibility when you need to integrate serial
equipment in the field with an Ethernet network or cloud platform. The cloud-ready device server can communicate with IIoT applications, using
generic MQTT or third-party cloud services, such as Azure and Alibaba Cloud. The combination of digital I/Os makes the device servers well-suited
for a variety of industrial data acquisition applications. The DI/Os on the device can be controlled over TCP/IP using the Modbus TCP protocol and
can be configured and secured from a web browser. The device can also be installed as a COM Port (patented Real COM) on a Windows/Linux PC
to make it compatible with legacy applications.
All models are ruggedly constructed, DIN-rail mountable, and designed with redundant power inputs to ensure uninterrupted operation for
industrial applications.
Cascading Ethernet Ports Make Wiring Easy
The NPort IA5000A-I/O device servers come with two Ethernet ports
that can be used as Ethernet switch ports. One port connects directly
to the network or server, and the other port can be connected to
either another NPort IA device server or another Ethernet device. The
dual Ethernet ports reduce wiring costs by eliminating the need to
connect each device to a separate Ethernet switch.
