TCP-Com®
Multi-purpose Serial-Ethernet redirection software
TCP-Com lets you easily access a serial device via a TCP/IP network or redirect Ethernet/IP data to real or “Virtual” RS232 serial ports.
TCP-Com is a six-in-one Serial-Ethernet tool:
1. Share devices over a network
Use TCP-Com as a PC-based serial device server (also known as a Terminal Server) to make any device accessible on a network.
Attach serial devices to your PC’s RS232 or USB ports and TCP-Com will make the data available at an IP address (and port number) on your network. Add additional USB or RS232 ports to your PC to make TCP-Com act as a multi-port Serial Device Server or Terminal Server.
2. Create virtual COM ports to receive network data
This allows you to send or receive data over a TCP/IP network using any existing COM port software.
Some software only recognizes data coming from RS232 COM ports. TCP-Com can easily create virtual COM ports and redirect Ethernet, Internet, or network data to these RS232 ports. This allows you to use any existing serial communications software to communicate over and collect data directly from your IP networks.
3. Feed RS232 COM port data to multiple PC apps or COM ports
Use TCP-Com as a virtual splitter cable.
Windows does not allow multiple applications to access the same COM port. Bypass this restriction by using TCP-Com to split a single COM port into multiple Virtual COM ports (which TCP-Com creates). This allows all your existing serial communications applications to access the same data.
4. Use an IP network as a giant RS232 cable
5. Open network COM ports as local COM ports
6. Map one network port to another network port
and more…
