sLAN/all White Paper Overview Computer becomes more efficient tool when combined with features provided by the external equipment connected to it. In order to connect external devices, communication protocol determined as standard is necessary, and the most widely used method is the serial communication. Serial communication is based on Telex communication, and nearly every computer has a serial port. However, communication speed is slow and it is not suitable for long distance communication.
sLAN/all White Paper sLAN/all sLAN is network access equipment which transforms socket communication as well as RS232/422/485 serial communication to an Ethernet based communication. sLAN does not only work as a standard device server but also provides additional features such as SGConfig and COM Redirector.
sLAN/all White Paper sLAN Features sLAN Connectivity and Management sLAN reads RS232/422/485 signals from a serial device and transmits to network. In contrast, network data could be sent to serial data. Serial communication speed is up to 921.6Kbps while ensuring reliability. It supports various network protocols such as TCP, UDP, Telnet, DHCP, HTTP. Configuration sLAN helps the user to easily set up the environment for a high level of communication.

sLAN/all White Paper sLAN Application sLAN can be used in many practical applications in various fields. Here we present some of them. Serial Communication Tunneling Tunneling extends cable in between PC and serial devices to network so it makes serial cable with no distance limitation. sLAN sLAN Serial to Ethernet Convertor As the most common example, PC and sLAN are connected to network, and serial devices connected to sLAN can be controlled in PC.
sLAN/all White Paper Remote Serial Port To provide remote serial port, sLAN provides COM Redirector.
