1 Overview
1.1 Overview
CSE-T16 is a 16-port console server allowing devices with console ports to be embedded with
networking capabilities. With CSE-T16, therefore, you can easily monitor status of console ports
over the network from anywhere in the world. It also helps you save your time and energy by
improving efficiency of integrated management and control of many devices in diverse applications.
This RS232 console server is an ideal solution for Remote Console Monitoring as it supports
useful features such as 16 ports of RS232, a security protocol(SSL) to protect data transmission,
sharing serial ports through the network(Telnet with RFC2217), etc.
1.2 Features
16 x RS232 (RJ45, up to 115,200bps)
Security Functions (SSL 3.0 / TLS 1.0, Password)
3 Communication modes (TCP Server, TCP Client and UDP)
Support of DHCP for DSL and cable network
A variety of ways to monitor communication status (ezManager, TELNET)
Powerful management software for Windows OS (ezManager)
Firmware upgrade through Network

1.7.3 Ethernet Interface
Network part of CSE-T16 is configured with Ethernet. So, what you have to do is only to connect
UTP cable. The Ethernet part detects 10Mbit or 100Mbit Ethernet automatically, to connect the
corresponding cable. It also provides auto MDI/MDIX function to detect 1:1 cable or cross-over
cable automatically.

2 Installation and Test
2.1 Installation
Before testing CSE-T16, users should connect CSE-T16’s Ethernet port to PC. It will be no
problem that the Ethernet connection includes network hubs. It also need to connect one of 16
serial ports to PC via a serial cable.
Figure 2-1 Connection between CSE-T16 and a PC
 In case if your PC doesn’t have a RS232 port, use a USB to RS232 cable.

2.1.1 Setting Network Area
This procedure should be followed to make CSE-T16 and your PC located on the same network
for a TCP connection.
IP address of PC setting
Add or change the IP address of the network adapter on your PC like following.
Click [Windows Control Panel] >> [Network Connections] and [Properties of the Network
Adapter]. Then, you can see the properties of [Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)]. Press the [Advanced]
button and add an IP Address like the figure below.
Figure 2-2 setting PC
CSE-T16 settings
ezManager comes with CSE-T16 as a configuration tool. This MS Windows-based software is
