Introduction

Moxa NPort IA(W)5000A-I/O Series are ready to run IIoT field devices. It collects serial or I/O data and transmits the data to public cloud services, such as Microsoft Azure and Alibaba Cloud, or private cloud services through generic MQTT protocols. Digital I/Os makes the device server versatile for industrial data acquisition applications. DI/Os on the device can be controlled over TCP/IP using Modbus TCP protocol. It can be configured and secured from a web browser.

Moxa NPort IAW5000A-6I/O series is equipped with one Ethernet port. Data can be transferred seamlessly between the serial line, LAN, and WAN using a single IP address. In addition to IP filtering and password protection, SSH and HTTPS are supported to provide protection from hackers. You may also open the serial or Telnet console, such as PuTTY, using a terminal emulator that supports SSH.

Most device servers only support a fixed number of serial baudrates. With NPort IAW5000A-I/O series, you can easily select any baudrate between 50 and 921.6 kbps. The device can also be installed as a COM Port (patented Real COM) on a Windows/Linux PC to make it compatible with legacy applications. All models are of rugged construct, din-rail mountable with redundant power inputs to ensure uninterrupted operation for industrial applications.
