Product Description:
The EDS4100 is the first external Device Server to deliver an
enterprise-grade, programmable device computing and networking platform
for integrating 'edge' equipment into the enterprise network. Featuring
Lantronix Evolution OS, the powerful real-time Networking Operating
System, the EDS4100 delivers an unprecedented level of intelligence and
security to networked equipment. With this powerful product, just about
any piece of equipment with a serial port can become a fully secure
member of the corporate network so it can be accessed and managed
remotely from virtually anywhere. Without requiring any special
software, the EDS4100 can put up to four RS-232 and/or 254 RS-485
serial devices on the network in a matter of minutes. Serial data from
the device is encapsulated into packets and transported over Ethernet
using a method called "serial tunneling." Set up is a breeze with the
included Windows-based web manager software. The EDS4100 can also be
set up locally through its serial port, or remotely over a network
using Telnet, a web browser or SNMP. Evolution OS provides 'data center
grade' level of protection so that each device on the M2M
(machine-to-machine) network carries the same level of security as IT
equipment in the corporate data center. The EDS4100 has robust defenses
to hostile Internet attacks such as denial of service (Dos) and port
mapping that can be used to take down the network. The hardened OS and
mature protocol stack prevents it from being used to bring down other
devices on the network. And with built-in SSH and SSL, it includes
robust key management algorithms that verify the data received came
from the proper source, validate that the data transferred from the
source over the network is unchanged when it arrives at its
destination, and provide ability to run popular M2M protocols over a
secure SSH connection With SSH and SSL, the EDS4100 supports a variety
of popular cipher technologies including 128/256/512/1024-bit AES
(Rijndael), 3DES and RC4 Encryption Public/Private-keys and hashing
algorithms such as SHA-1 and MD5. HTTP authentication uses Base-64,
Digest Authentication and SSL. The EDS4100 uses a Cisco-like command
line interface (CLI) with syntax that is very similar to that used by
data center equipment such as routers and hubs. This industry-standard
tool simplifies configuration and control, making it easier to
integrate edge devices into the enterprise network. XML is a standard
tool for web services, data transfer and rich content management that
encapsulates data into a text-based format. XML-based configuration and
setup records in EDS4100 make the device configuration transparent and
easily modified with a standard text or XML editor. EDS4100 features
true IEEE 802.3af-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) using both
Ethernet pairs. Eliminating the need for an external power supply and
associated labor costs, EDS4100 is ideally suited to add immediate
networking functionality for remote equipment located virtually
anywhere. Eight MB of Flash memory provide maintenance-free nonvolatile
storage of web pages, and enable future system software upgrades.
Featuring a 32-bit XScale processor and 32MB of RAM, the EDS4100 is
highly customizable with the Evolution OS Software Developers' Kit
(SDK). A free compiler is available. The EDS4100 also features a mini
PCI for future expansion, including additional possibilities such as
modems, 802.11 wireless and FIPS 140-2 level 2 encryption. Lantronix
Com Port Redirector software is included. It redirects application data
destined for a local serial (COM) port on a PC to a serial port on the
EDS4100. Data sent from the device to the EDS4100 is transmitted back
to the application over the network. Com Port Redirector then presents
the data to the application as if it were from a local serial COM port.
This product features international power supply and regional adapters.
