PortServer TS device servers are ideal for applications requiring COM ports or where TCP/UDP Sockets or multicast functionality is required. All Digi device servers include Digi’s patented RealPort® COM port redirector technology, which makes it possible to establish a connection between the host and networked serial device by creating a local COM or TTY port on the host computer, allowing existing software applications to work without modification.

For RS-232/422/485 support, please see PortServer TS MEI.
