Introduction
The NPort® 6000 device servers utilise the TLS and SSH protocols to transmit encrypted serial data over Ethernet. The NPort® 6000’s 3-in-1 serial port supports RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485, with interface selection via an easy-to-use configuration menu. The NPort® 6000 2-port device servers are available for connection to a 10/100BaseT(X) copper Ethernet or 100BaseT(X) fibre optic network. Both singlemode and multimode fibre optics are supported.
