In the new millennium, pervasive IP networks are
rapidly making global communications a cost effective reality. However,
countless devices are unable to attach to this global network. Using the EQUINOX
Managed Device Server, you can now leverage this cost effective infrastructure
when making serial connections to local or remote devices.Ideal for security, medical, building automation,
retail POS, instrumentation, process control and similar device-oriented
applications, the Managed Device Server is easy to install and manage, smaller
than a deck of cards and eliminates the need for bulky and expensive remote
computers. Best of all, software customization is not required; the MDS shields
existing applications from any changes.
