Site Licensing
If you know the certain number of computers to be equipped with Serial to Ethernet Connector you may consider obtaining Site License. The advantage of Site Licensing comparing to multiple Single licenses is one license key for all company computers.
Usage scenarios
Serial to Ethernet Technology has found use in a variety of industries, including telecommunications, healthcare, trading, manufacturing, and more. The following are just some of the most common usage scenarios:
Maintaining specialized COM port equipment over LAN or the internet
Developing hardware solutions with remote access capabilities
Replacing expensive legacy equipment with cost-efficient software applications
Redirecting serial port devices to virtual machines and blade servers
Centralized management and control of the company’s remote equipment
Integration of the virtualization technology into hardware COM port converters, adapters, and device servers
Connecting serial port devices to computers lacking real COM ports
Core benefits
With the implementation of the port virtualization technology in your own product, you gain a set of significant advantages over your competitors. Those include:
- Cost efficiency. You offer an all-in-one product that relieves your customers from the need to buy any additional equipment or software.
- A unique feature set. Enhanced with the advanced remote access functionality, your hardware or software solution becomes even more versatile and effective.
- Technological flexibility. Your customers get the much-desired flexibility in improving their technological, laboratory, or industrial processes.
Wireless connections to corporate equipment
More often than not large enterprises rely on wired corporate networks to connect multiple in-house devices to the central data processing computers or data servers. By integrating Serial to Ethernet Technology into the server part, you open the way for wireless connections to virtually any remote serial port device regardless of its physical location.
In addition to eliminating tons of wires running all over the place, with the port virtualization technology you get the ability to monitor and manage all of your bulky industrial equipment remotely from a single workstation.

Our customers’ experience
See the most interesting use cases of Serial to Ethernet Technology implementation
We needed a solution to provide our 16-port Serial to Ethernet device with the remote access functionality. Electronic's Team technology allowed making remote Ethernet serial ports appear as local virtual COM ports on any client computer. Now, our customers can access these virtual serial ports as Unix stream I/O ports on Solaris 10 64-bit.
Our clients got the ability to work with remote serial ports on the company’s console servers by using Opengear's hardware appliances and a Windows serial port redirector client built with Electronic's Team Serial to Ethernet Technology.
We wanted to make our solutions compatible with so-called standard in HAM radio equipment. Communications between various HAM radio software and hardware are still based on serial connections. The Port Virtualization Technology helps us develop new-era devices able to support software/equipment manufactured more than 20 years ago.
