Industrial Serial Device Server MOXA CA-9-3715D — MOXA CA-9-3715D

MOXA CA-9-3715D is an industrial serial device server that provides a compact and reliable interface to connect serial equipment to Ethernet networks. Designed for industrial environments, it enables serial-to-IP communication so that legacy devices and serial instruments can be accessed, monitored, and managed remotely over LAN or WAN. The unit supports secure and stable connectivity suitable for automation systems, remote telemetry, and equipment integration where serial ports must be bridged to modern network infrastructure.

Advantages

The device offers stable serial-to-Ethernet conversion in a small footprint, reducing the need for onsite access to serial devices. It supports consistent data transmission and remote management functions, helping minimize downtime and simplify device integration. Built with industrial-grade components, the server is designed for continuous operation and predictable behavior in control systems and monitoring installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting legacy RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 serial instruments to IP networks
• Industrial automation systems requiring remote serial device access
• Remote monitoring and telemetry of field equipment
• SCADA integration and factory floor device networking

Key specifications

• Function: Serial device server for serial-to-Ethernet conversion
• Form factor: Compact industrial network interface suitable for DIN-rail or panel mounting environments
• Serial connectivity: Designed to support common serial interfaces used in industrial equipment (RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 compatible)
• Network connectivity: Ethernet interface for TCP/IP communication and remote access
• Operating environment: Engineered for continuous industrial operation with components rated for reliable performance
• Management: Remote configuration and monitoring capabilities via network protocols

How to use

Install the MOXA CA-9-3715D on an appropriate mounting location close to the serial equipment and connect the serial port to the target device using the matching serial interface and cabling. Connect the Ethernet port to the local network infrastructure and configure network settings (IP address, gateway, DNS) according to site requirements. Use the device's management tools or web interface to set serial port parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) and any necessary protocol or security settings. Verify communication by testing data transfer between the serial device and a networked host or application.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, place the unit within a controlled industrial enclosure or on DIN-rail near the connected equipment, ensure proper grounding, and protect network links with VLANs or firewalls as appropriate. Match serial parameters exactly to the connected device and periodically verify firmware updates and configuration backups to maintain stable serial-to-IP communication.
