Wireless RS232 wifi 802.11GB dual serial port server
$159 - Lowest Priced device of its type in the World!
Why settle for some inferior wireless RS232 device that does not work with anything else, when you can have true IEEE-802.11gb that works with your Laptop, Notebook and the installed Wireless WiFi Networks in your factory, warehouse, office and home?
The World’s FIRST and ONLY 802.11“G†& “b†Serial Port Server device.
This is “True G†and won’t slow your â€G†network!
Did you know that a single 802.11“b†device running on a “g†network will slow the actual data throughput of the entire “g†network down from the usable “g†rate of 22mbps down to only 8mbps? The Data Hunter SerialLAN-Gb is the only RS232/RS485 Serial Server device in the World that will allow your “g†networks to run at their full speed capability. That is because the SerialLAN-Gb is a “True-G†device.
What does this RS232 Dual Serial Port Server data radio do?
SerialLAN-Gb is a Wireless LAN (WLAN) with two RS232 Serial Ports. It is compatible with all 802.11 G and b devices. That means it will work with the 802.11Gb wireless network at your factory, warehouse, office or residence. It will work with the WiFi network radio in your Laptop and Notebook PC as well. A SerialLAN can transmit the RS232 data to/from the 2 serial ports to/from another SerialLAN or to any 802.11Gb compatible WLAN, Laptop, Access Point, Router, PCMCIA Laptop card, and send the data to a network, PC, Laptop, PDA or Internet anywhere in the World.
Can the SerialLAN Serial Port Server data radio communicate with other brands of Access Point and Laptop/Notebook devices?
The SerialLAN-Gb is compatible with all world devices that comply with the I.E.E.E. 802.11g and 802.11b standard protocols, and that means it will work with any manufacturer’s 802.11g and b Access Points, Routers, PCMCIA cards and Laptops with built-in WiFi. This includes all brands of Laptop and Notebook PCs with built-in WiFi or plug-in WiFi cards.
I want to: Wirelessly Connect SerialLAN to my Access Point / Router at my Business, Industrial or Residential.
This is referred to as “Infrastructure Mode†(Network mode) and is very easy to set up and get running in minutes. Using the Access Point, all your devices can talk to each other that are on your wired (Ethernet) network such as Desk Top PCs, any of your wireless enabled devices (Laptops, Notebooks, Tablets, PDAs) and the wireless SerialLAN(s).
I want to: Wirelessly Connect SerialLAN direct to my Wireless Laptop/Notebook but without an Access Point.
This is referred to as “Ad Hoc†(peer-to-peer) mode where two peer devices talk to each other. An example is where the SerialLAN is connected to an instrument or industrial controller with RS232 interface, and you want the Laptop to communicate wirelessly directly with the equipment (but without an Access Point). In this case the SerialLAN would be set into Ad Hoc mode which would cause a beacon to be generated that would show up as an “Available Network†name on the Laptop’s “Find Available Networks†screen. Just highlight that network name you assigned to the SerialLAN on your laptop to connect to it.
I want to: Wirelessly Connect SerialLAN directly to another SerialLAN in an RS232 “Cut Cable†application.
This is another Ad Hoc (peer-to-peer) mode application. This is actually quite easy when you follow the illustrated step-by-step SerialLAN instructions. Just set both SerialLANs to “Ad Hoc†mode, set one SerialLAN as “Server†and the other SerialLAN as “Clientâ€, set the Remote IP Address value of the Client SerialLAN to point to the address of the Server SerialLAN and the devices will be linked wirelessly together with RS232 in and out just as if it were a very long cable. Does it sound complicated? We provide step-by-step instructions to make it easy.
I want to: Power the SerialLAN directly from my device without using the AC power supply.
If you have regulated DC Power from +5 to +30 VDC available in your instrument or device, you can power the SerialLAN directly from your device’s DC power source by applying positive voltage power to pin 9 of the serial cable going to either the male connector or female connector. Of course industry standard is for pin 5 as Ground for both D9 connectors.
How long can I maintain an active RF link with the SerialLAN?
Maintain the Link forever: The new SerialLAN-gb can maintain sustained link with the ports INDEFINATELY – you can send large files, or only a few bytes – or even NO BYTES – and the link will remain open indefinitely. There is no License Timeout. This is perfect for factory installations that “drip feed†data as well as those that send massive data files.
