About Your Vlinx ESR90xW Wireless Serial Server
Vlinx ESR90xW Wireless Serial Servers are part of B&B Electronics
growing family of device servers, products that allow you to connect
equipment with available serial connections into existing networks. Vlinx
ESR90xW wireless serial servers connect RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485
devices to a wireless network via wireless access points, eliminating the need
for network cabling. Devices connected to the serial ports on your Vlinx
ESR90xW can be accessed from any node on the LAN using Direct IP
Mode, Virtual COM Port, or Serial Tunneling (Paired Mode) connections.
Based on the 802.11g wireless standard, Vlinx ESR90xW servers operate at
up to 54Mbps over the 2.4 GHz band, which does not require licensing.

Communication Modes
Vlinx ESR90xW Wireless Serial Servers enable communication with
serial devices over a wireless network. The three main types of
communications supported by ESR90xW Wireless Serial Servers are Direct
IP Mode, Virtual COM Mode and Serial Tunneling Mode.
serial devices over a wireless network. The three main types of
communications supported by ESR90xW Wireless Serial Servers are Direct
IP Mode, Virtual COM Mode and Serial Tunneling Mode.
Direct IP Mode
Direct IP connections allow applications using TCP/IP or UDP/IP socket
programs to communicate with the asynchronous serial ports on the serial
server. In this type of application the serial server is configured as a TCP or
UDP server. The socket program running on the PC establishes a
communication connection. The data is sent directly to and from the serial
port on the server. When using UDP protocol the server can be configured to
broadcast data to and receive data from multiple IP addresses.
