Posted on

Most companies are not replacing their equipment — they are updating the way they talk to it. Digi Connect EZ TS modernises operational infrastructure with expanded network connectivity and functionality for today’s applications. Digi Connect EZ TS is designed to meet the demands of a wide range of critical serial applications including connecting to automation, robotics control, centralised device management, data acquisition and point-of-sale equipment.

Digi has just added the new Digi Connect EZ04-TS and Connect EZ08-TS serial device servers as part of the Connect EZ product line. Digi Connect EZ TS is an efficient transition upgrade as using the same footprint does not require wiring changes. Set up is fast, with configuration in minutes. Security is a prime consideration – Digi Trustfence provides secure enterprise grade encryption. Digi Connect EZ TS has flexible management options, either cloud or on premises, and 1 year of Lifecycle Assurance is included providing 24/7 support and device management.

Digi Connect EZ TS is available in 4-port and 8-port configurations with software-selectable RS-232/422/485 communication. Designed as efficient transition upgrades for legacy ConnectPort TS and PortServer TS devices, Connect EZ TS devices preserve the same mechanical footprint and familiar workflows while delivering the power of Digi’s modern Connect EZ platform. Connect EZ TS devices take only a few minutes to configure with intelligent, use case-based options 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 TS with built-in Digi TrustFence gives your security and operations teams peace of mind against evolving security threats with secure boot and encrypted connections, centralized authentication, VPN support and scalable security updates.

Digi Connect EZ TS 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.
