NESS Ip232 Ethernet To Rs232 Bridge (Bi-Directional) Ness K-6002

The IP232 is an Ethernet to RS-232 Serial Port Bridge.

It may be used to connect any standard serial communications device such as a PC, an audio/video distribution system, or an Ness-M1 Control or Ness D8X / D16X, to an Ethernet network.

It allows bi-directional communication between the two.It operates as a network server, which means it does not initiate network connections, but rather, accepts them.

The IP232 is required to connect the D8X / D16X to the Ness iComms iOS App or the Ness M1 Touchscreen to the Russound Audio Distribution system.

• Supports both UDP and TCP protocols
