TekTone CT601 Serial to IP Converter

TekTone CT601 Nurse Call Network Conversion

TekTone CT601 Serial to IP Converter is used to connect a Tek-CARE® 300/II/III Nurse Call System or a monitored third-party system to a facility's LAN. Events and messages from the connected system are sent across the LAN to the NC475 Tek-CARE® Appliance Server.

The CT601 Serial to IP Converter becomes a virtual COM port on the NC475 Tek-CARE® Appliance Server and provides long-distance communication between the server and the monitored serial device. The CT601 eliminates the otherwise expensive long-distance cabling required for these connections.

Configuring the CT601 is accomplished using software provided with the device. The unit can be wall- or DIN-rail mounted and incorporates surge protection.
