Most companies are not replacing their equipment — they are updating the way they talk to it. Digi Connect EZ modernizes operational infrastructure with expanded network connectivity and functionality for today’s applications. It is designed to meet the demands of a wide range of critical serial applications, including connecting to automation, robotics control, centralized device management, data acquisition and point-of-sale equipment.
Digi Connect EZ is a click-to-connect family of serial device servers built for modern infrastructure — available with 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 serial ports across form factors designed for every environment. The family also includes the Connect EZ WS for healthcare and patient-adjacent deployments and the Connect EZ TS for efficient transition upgrades from legacy PortServer TS and ConnectPort TS devices.
Digi Connect EZ 16 and 32 are available with RS-232 or a software-selectable option for RS-232/422/485 communication, as well as LTE and single or dual power options. It takes only a few minutes to configure with intelligent, use case-based options so that you can quickly install without having to modify your equipment or applications.
Digi simplifies key security requirements for critical infrastructure and distributed systems with enhanced access control, management and configuration capabilities. Digi Connect EZ 16 and 32 include built-in Digi TrustFence to give your security and operations teams peace of mind against evolving security threats with encrypted connections, centralized authentication, VPN support and scalable security updates.
Digi Connect EZ 16 and 32 supports the widest range of industry standard and device-specific protocols using serial tunneling, TCP/UDP connections or Digi’s patented RealPort COM port redirector for remote native COM port access. A built-in Python environment enables application development and customization at the device level, including event-based programmability, data conversion and full control of device connections.
