NPort® 5100 device servers are designed to make serial devices 
network-ready in an instant. The small size of the servers makes 
them ideal for connecting devices such as card readers and payment 
Using serial device servers to connect legacy serial devices to Ethernet 
is now commonplace, and users expect device servers to be cost-
effective and to provide a broad selection of useful functions. With its 
In some critical environments, termination resistors may be needed 
to prevent the reflection of serial signals. When using termination 
resistors, it is also important to set the pull high/low resistors correctly 
so that the electrical signal is not corrupted. Since no set of resistor 
The Real COM/TTY drivers provided with the NPort® 5100 
device servers allow you to continue using software designed for 
communicating through COM/TTY ports. Installation and configuration 
is painless, and allows your serial devices and PC to communicate 
NPort® 5100 device servers support SNMP V2, which can be used to 
monitor all units over Ethernet. Each unit can be configured to send 
trap messages automatically to the SNMP manager when user-defined 
errors are encountered. For users who do not use SNMP manager, an
