RS485 to WiFi Serial Server Module

Dimensions: not specified in source; Weight: not specified; Power input: 5–36 VDC wide-range DC supply; Enclosure material: plastic and metal hybrid construction; Wireless standard: IEEE 802.11b/g/n; Supported protocols: TCP, UDP, Telnet, Modbus TCP; Serial interface: RS485 with baud rates up to 460800 bps; Operating modes: STA, AP, and AP+STA; Configuration options: embedded web server interface, PC-based IOTService tool, and V8 Smart Config mobile app; Security: DES3 encryption support; Firmware updates: web-based OTA (Over-The-Air) wireless upgrade; Includes: 1 × RS485-to-WiFi serial device server, 1 × 4-pin terminal block, 1 × mounting bracket. This module enables seamless integration of legacy RS485 industrial devices into modern Wi-Fi or Ethernet networks. It operates as a transparent bridge — no firmware modification required on connected serial devices. The embedded web server allows real-time status monitoring and full parameter configuration without additional software. Its dual-mode (AP+STA) capability supports flexible deployment: connect directly to an existing network (STA), create a local hotspot (AP), or run both simultaneously for hybrid access. Ideal for industrial automation, smart building systems, remote sensor monitoring, and legacy equipment modernisation across UK factories, utilities, and infrastructure sites where RS485 devices (e.g., PLCs, meters, RTUs) need secure, low-latency wireless connectivity without rewiring.
