Remotely Monitor, Manage and Share Devices
Over a Network or the Internet
EDS4100 is a unique, hybrid Ethernet terminal and multi-port device
server product designed to remotely access and manage edge devices such
as medical equipment, kiosks, POS/retail terminals, security equipment
and much more.
EDS4100 is the first external device / terminal server to deliver an
enterprise-grade, programmable device computing and networking platform
for integrating ‘edge’ equipment into the enterprise network.
Featuring Lantronix Evolution OS™, our powerful real-time Networking
Operating System, the EDS4100 delivers an unprecedented level of
intelligence and security to networked equipment, complete with SSH and
SSL security built-in. 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.
Easy to Setup Power Over Ethernet
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.
Bullet-proof Security
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
* 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.
Standards-Based Communications
Cisco-like CLI – 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-based Architecture – 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.
PoE (Power over Ethernet)
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.
Powerful and Customizable
Eight MB of Flash memory provides maintenance-free nonvolatile storage of
web pages, and enables 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.
Com Port Redirector
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.
