Digi One IAP combines reliable serial-to-Ethernet connectivity with protocol conversion and interoperability. Users can IP enable a broad range of serial devices, as well as link two industrial devices. It is ideal for device management and monitoring applications requiring specific industry protocol support.

Serial server functionality built into Digi One IAP allows virtually any serial device to be connected to a TCP/IP network. Applications may communicate with the serial device using TCP/UDP or Digi’s patented RealPort® COM port redirector for remote native COM port access. RealPort enables existing applications to communicate, without modification, with serial devices over the Ethernet. By creating a Modbus bridge multiple Modbus/TCP masters can share Modbus serial slaves or Modbus serial Masters can access Modbus/TCP slaves.

Digi One IAP supports a variety of serial (DF1, Modbus, ASCII) and Ethernet (ModbusTCP, AB/Ethernet, Ethernet/IP) protocols, allowing users to bridge serial and Ethernet devices, or both. Multi-master access allows multiple masters to communicate with a single slave across protocols. Digi One IAP converts ASCII data from serial devices to Ethernet protocols. An additional serial port can act as a pass-through port, allowing local devices to communicate with a slave unit without disrupting the serial-to-Ethernet connection.
