SX-510 Serial Device Server
for Medical Device Networking
802.11a/b/g Wireless and Ethernet Connectivity
The Simple Way to Network Medical Devices
The SX-510 serial device server is specifically designed to connect
medical devices that have a serial port to an 802.11a/b/g wireless or
10Base-T/100Base-T wired network. Unlike conventional serial device
servers, the SX-510 meets major medical regulatory requirements with
an IEC 60601-1 safety rated medical power supply, plus compliance with
the IEC 60601-2:2001 medical EMC standard and the ANSI/IEEE Std.
C95.1-1999 SAR standard for human exposure to radio frequency fields.
It also meets UL/CSA 60950-1 and EN60950 safety requirements, and it
includes an IP-21 rated enclosure.The SX-510 can therefore be used for
networking a wide range of medical devices, even in situations that
require close proximity to the human body.
The SX-510 also features the most extensive wireless security in the
industry, with support for WPA2-Enterprise (802.11i),WPA2-PSK,WPA-
Enterprise,WPA-PSK, and WEP 64/128. Unlike most competitors, the SX-
510 also supports 802.1x authentication with EAP-FAST, PEAP, LEAP,TLS,
and TTLS.
Easy to Use and Manage
The SX-510 includes a complete TCP/IP network stack, that allows it to
be easily accessed and controlled over the network.The included Serial
Port Emulator software allows you to configure virtual serial ports on a
Windows system (for example, COM3) that redirect all of the data out to
the SX-510 over the network, thereby allowing you to continue use of
your current applications without modification. Alternatively, you can
easily send and receive data to/from the SX-510 over the network from
application programs via TCP sockets.
Although the SX-510 is designed primarily to enable networking for
medical devices, it can also be used in almost any other device
networking application where user safety is a significant concern.
Applications
The SX-510 can provide wireless and wired networking capabilities for
medical devices such as:
The SX-510 includes a built-in web browser interface for configuration
and management.The Silex ExtendView Windows utility provides
additional management capabilities, including the ability to configure
multiple SX-510s simultaneously. A console accessible via TELNET or
the serial port is available for more sophisticated diagnostics and
configuration. For direct M2M control, the SX-510 supports AT modem-
style commands and in-band transmission of console commands.
Cardiovascular (ECG/EKG) monitors
•
Pulse oximeters
•
Infusion pumps
•
•
Clinical laboratory equipment
The SX-510 serial device server is compatible with the Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) for compatibility with most popular
network management systems.
In fact, almost any type of medical device with a serial port can be
easily network enabled by using an SX-510.
Tested for Maximum Compatibility
Secure
Security is a major issue in hospitals, especially given the HIPAA
requirements for patient privacy. The SX-510 includes enterprise-level
security features such as access control lists, complete protocol and
application enable/disable control, read and write configuration
passwords, and SNMP community name configuration.
Silex wireless serial device servers have been tested extensively to
support the security methods used in leading access points and
RADIUS servers. Like all Silex wireless products, the SX-510 has proven
roaming capabilities based on our experience with some of the world's
largest wireless local area networks.
