The PortServer TS family of terminal servers delivers simple, reliable, and cost effective EIA-232/422/485 serial-to-Ethernet connectivity for a wide range of applications. The PortServer TS provides hardware independent solutions that allow access to network server applications supporting TCP/IP. PortServer TS incorporates Digi's patented RealPort® software, which provides local serial port functionality as well as incoming and outgoing Rlogin and Telnet sessions on each port. The Digi Port Authority - Remote (DPA-Remote) gives PortServer TS users a management tool for monitoring network and serial activity from a Windows or UNIX-based client or server. In addition, the PortServer TS provides SSH v2 encryption to protect against unauthorized monitoring of LAN traffic and port buffering which can be used to capture vital information from the serial ports of managed UNIX servers for problem resolution.
