Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
This manual provides the necessary information to use EDG-4508+,
EDG-4516+ and the rear-wired versions of these. The Advantech Ether-
net Data Gateway series (EDG series) consists of fast and cost-effective
data gateways between RS-232/422/485 and Ethernet interfaces.
EDG-4508+ and 4516+ are part of the Ethernet Data Gateway (EDG)
family of multiple port modules. They provide reliable and cost-effective
network connections for serial devices, allowing users to extend their lim-
ited COM ports without changing the architecture of their existing appli-
cation (s). EDG immediately upgrades users' existing device to the
Internet world.
EDG-4508+ and 4516+ provide 8 and 16 serial ports respectively, that
can be easily configured. To increase the reliability of systems, EDG-
4508+ and EDG-4516+ provide two significant functions:
• Auto-reconnection and IP access control.
• Support for transmission speeds up to 230 kbps (RS-485), meeting
