  • Page 11: Chapter 1: Introduction

    Introduction PES1A and PESV1A Mini PoE (Power over Ethernet) Ethernet to RS- 232 Converters provide simple and cost-effective solutions for connecting RS-232 devices to Ethernet networks. PES1A and PESV1A converters make it easy to connect serial printers, copiers, building automation, retail, point of sale, warehousing and banking equipment directly into Ethernet networks.

  • Page 12: Communication Modes

    Direct IP Mode allows applications using TCP/IP or UDP/IP socket programs to communicate with the asynchronous serial ports on the serial server. In this mode the PES1A/PESV1A is configured as a TCP or UDP server. The socket program running on the PC establishes a communication connection.

  • Page 13: Paired Mode

    PES1A/PESV1A and communication occurs over the network. The PES1A/PESV1A emulates modem responses to and from the serial device. In Console Management Mode the PES1A/PESV1A can be configured for connection to the management port typically found on network devices such as routers, switches and servers.
