Secure Serial Connectivity

The Perle IOLAN SDS4 is a four-port device server that connects RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 equipment to an IP network. It suits integrators and IT teams who need to manage legacy serial consoles, industrial controllers or building-automation gear from a central location. The unit runs on a 66 MHz MPC852T processor with 32 MB of RAM and 8 MB of flash memory. IPv6 support protects the investment as networks evolve.

Build Integration

Each of the four RJ45 ports provides hardware flow control for reliable data transfer between serial devices and the LAN. The server draws power from an external supply, freeing internal slots in racks or cabinets. Its compact metal enclosure fits on a DIN rail or a shelf without forcing changes to existing cable runs. No additional software licences are required for the core secure protocols.

Migration Path

The SDS4 replaces older single-port terminal servers or direct serial cabling when multiple devices must share one network drop. The upgrade is worthwhile when remote access, encryption or IPv6 compliance become mandatory. It does not serve environments that need fibre uplinks, PoE pass-through or more than four concurrent serial sessions.

Questions about this item

How many serial devices can connect to the four RJ45 ports at once?

The IOLAN SDS4 provides four RJ45 serial ports so up to four RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 devices can be attached simultaneously.

What is the typical heat output when the unit runs continuously?

The 66 MHz MPC852T processor and 32 MB RAM draw little power, so the fanless metal chassis stays cool during all-day operation.

Which network cable and IP scheme are needed before the server appears on the LAN?

A standard Ethernet patch cable and an IPv4 or IPv6 address — static or DHCP — are all that is required for the single network port to join the network.
