Serial-to-Ethernet Solutions
The NPort® IA5150 and IA5250 device servers each have 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

NPort® IA device servers provide easy and reliable serial-to-Ethernet 
connectivity for industrial automation applications. The device servers 
can connect any serial device to an Ethernet network, and to ensure 
compatibility with network software, they support a variety of port 
operation modes, including TCP Server, TCP Client, and UDP. The 
rock-solid reliability of the NPort® IA device servers makes them 
an ideal choice for establishing network access to RS-232/422/485 
serial devices such as PLCs, sensors, meters, motors, drives, barcode 
readers, and operator displays. All models are housed in a compact, 
rugged housing that is DIN-rail mountable.

dual Ethernet ports help reduce wiring costs by eliminating the need to 
connect each device to a separate Ethernet switch.
