The Moxa NPort 5650-8 is an 8-port rackmount serial device server built for bringing multiple RS-232/422/485 devices onto an IP network from a single, tidy rack unit. With RJ45 serial connectors and wide-range AC power input (100 to 240 VAC), it’s designed for clean installs and repeatable rack deployments.
Why We Love This Product
- Eight serial ports in one rackmount unit—ideal for consolidating serial endpoints
- Supports RS-232/422/485 for mixed serial device environments
- RJ45 serial connectors help keep rack wiring neat and serviceable
- 100 to 240 VAC power input suits standard rack power setups across sites
How Our Customers Use It
- Centralising serial instruments, controllers, and gateways into a single rack for network access
- Modernising racks while keeping proven serial devices in service
- Reducing the number of separate single-port adapters and power supplies in a cabinet
- Standardising multi-port serial-to-IP architecture across multiple sites
Choosing Tips
- Choose the 5650-8 when you need a rackmount, multi-port solution but don’t need 16 ports
- If you’re close to (or already above) 8 serial devices, it’s usually smarter to jump to the 16-port model to avoid future rework
- For a single serial device only, a 1-port or 2-port device server is typically the simpler and more cost-effective choice
