NPort® 5600 rackmount device servers can conveniently and 
transparently connect up to sixteen serial devices to an Ethernet, 
allowing you to network your existing serial devices with only basic 
configuration. Data transmission between the serial and Ethernet 

Real COM/TTY drivers are provided that make the serial ports on the 
NPort® 5600 recognizable as Real COM ports by Windows, or Real 
TTY ports by Linux. In addition to supporting basic data transmission 

The System LED, Serial Tx/Rx LEDs, and Ethernet LEDs (located on the 
RJ45 connector) provide a great tool for basic maintenance tasks and 
help engineers analyze problems in the field. The NPort® 5600’s LEDs 

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 
values is universally compatible for all environments, the NPort® 5600 
has DIP switches on the bottom panel for setting the termination and 
pull high/low resistor values.

NPort® 5600 device servers come with Tx/Rx LEDs for the serial ports 
on the front panel, and the 8 or 16 RJ45 serial port connectors on the 
rear panel. This makes the NPort® 5600 device servers suitable for 

interfaces is bi-directional. By using NPort® device servers, you not 
only protect your current hardware investment, but also allow for 
future network expansion. You can both centralize the management 
of your serial devices, and distribute management hosts over the 
network.

DSR, and DCD control signals.

not only indicate current system and network status, but also help field
