Comtrol Launches DeviceMaster® LT16 – Secure Device Server for Serial to Ethernet Device Communication

MINNEAPOLIS--()--Comtrol Corporation, a leading manufacturer of industrial device connectivity products, today released the DeviceMaster LT16, a highly secure, compact device server for easy integration of serial communication devices into LAN, Internet, or cloud-based systems.

The DeviceMaster LT16 easily links serial communication devices into existing Ethernet networks for remote diagnostics, management, and data collection. With a low-profile design, 16 serial ports, and Windows and Linux driver software, it is ideal for network-enabling barcode scanners, weigh scales, card readers, and POS equipment.

For those with existing systems, the DeviceMaster LT16 utilizes serial port wiring compatible with widely deployed device server models from Digi International Inc. This compatibility makes the LT16 a cost-effective replacement for legacy systems while maintaining investment in existing cabling and infrastructure.

For compliance with new and evolving data security practices, the DeviceMaster LT16 includes the strongest security and encryption features to support deployment in government, financial, and point-of-sale applications where strict privacy and data standards are crucial.

“With security breaches recently topping the news, now more than ever, companies are looking to modernize their networks and serial communication systems,” said Comtrol Director of Product Management David Boldt, “The DeviceMaster LT16 delivers the latest networking and data security features needed to immediately bring systems up to speed.”

The DeviceMaster LT16 is available in two models for installations requiring AC power or direct DC power systems. It includes Microsoft® certified driver software supporting the latest Windows operating systems and TTY drivers for popular Linux distributions. Comprehensive PortVision® DX network management software is included with each product for configuration, monitoring, and remote management within any network size.
