WiPort Data Sheet General Description The WiPort is the most compact, integrated solution available to add 802.11b wireless networking to any edge device with a serial interface. Using our highly integrated hardware and software platform, you will add to your bottom line by significantly reducing product development time, risk, and cost. The WiPort offers the highest level of integration available in a device server. Within a compact package is a DSTni x86 controller, memory, 802.11b transceiver, a 10/100 Ethernet transceiver, and dual high-speed serial ports. All of this combines to give you a complete networking solution. The WiPort is the first product in a line of embedded wireless device servers, designed with flexibility to support additional wireless standards without requiring redesign. To enable access to a local network or the Internet, the WiPort integrates a fully developed TCP/IP network stack and OS. The WiPort also includes an embedded web server that can be used to remotely configure, monitor, or troubleshoot the attached device. WiPort serves web pages to a web browser when there is a need to gather information or communicate with networked devices. The WiPort becomes a conduit between you and your device over the network or Internet. The Windows-based configuration software, Device Installer, simplifies installation and setup. The WiPort can also be configured locally through its serial port, or remotely over a network using Telnet (password-
protected) or a web browser. Flash memory provides for maintenance-free, nonvolatile storage of web pages, and allows future system software upgrades. Hardware & Software Description The WiPort functions independently of a PC, providing a complete hardware and software solution for adding wireless connectivity to your edge devices. Within a single package this powerful device server comes with an 802.11b wireless connection, a 10/100 Ethernet transceiver, a reliable and proven operating system stored in flash memory, an embedded web server, a full TCP/IP protocol stack, and WEP security. The WiPort software runs on a Lantronix DSTni controller which has 256 KB of internal SRAM, and 16 KB of boot ROM. The WiPort communicates to the edge device through a 3.3V logic level interface. 2 MB of flash memory is included for storing firmware and web pages. Key Features Complete integrated solution Supports WLAN or Ethernet connectivity Serial to 802.11b conversion Stable, field proven TCP/IP protocol suite and web-
based application framework Easy configuration through a web interface Easy installation of customized web pages Embedded web server 11 General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins 802.11b wireless interface E-mail alerts Password protection Upgradeable firmware via the network or serial port Dual serial ports 128 bit WEP encryption WPA security upgradeable High performance data throughput A larger memory option is available that includes 4 MB of flash memory, and an additional 1 MB of SRAM. The WiPort runs on a single 3.3V supply, and has a built-in voltage supervisory circuit. The WiPort will connect through a coaxial cable pigtail to a panel-mounted external antenna, which makes the electro-mechanical integration very simple. WiPort Data Sheet Copyright 2004, Lantronix. All rights reserved. Protocol Support The WiPort uses the widely accepted 802.11b protocol to connect to a wireless access point or ad-hoc network. It uses the Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP) to assure that no data is lost or duplicated and that everything sent to the connection arrives correctly at the target. Other supported protocols are listed below:
ARP, UDP, TCP, ICMP, Telnet, TFTP, AutoIP, DHCP, HTTP, and SNMP for network communications. TCP, UDP, and Telnet for connections to the serial port. IP for addressing, routing, and data block handling over the network. a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) for typical datagram applications in which devices interact with other devices without maintaining point-to-point connection. Dimensions The WiPort dimensions are shown in the following drawing:
