Meet the Brainboxes Industrial Ethernet to Serial adapter, a rugged two-port bridge that delivers reliable, flexible serial connectivity over Ethernet for demanding industrial environments. Designed to connect modern IP networks to legacy serial devices, this compact device is ideal for factory automation, remote telemetry, and SCADA integrations. The ES-522 model (2-port) offers software-selectable configurations that adapt to RS232, RS422/485 full duplex, or RS422 half duplex, giving you the exact serial topology your equipment requires while preserving network efficiency and data integrity. Built with a slim, end-on enclosure, removable screw-terminal blocks for easy on-site wiring, and a robust DIN rail mounting option, it is engineered to withstand harsh industrial conditions and to install quickly in control cabinets or on equipment racks.

  • Two independent serial ports with software-selectable modes: RS232, RS422/485 (full duplex), or RS422 half duplex, enabling flexible, scalable serial architectures without swapping hardware.
  • Ethernet-to-Serial bridging for remote device management and networked data collection, allowing seamless integration of serial devices into modern networks and cloud-enabled monitoring systems.
  • Removable screw-terminal blocks for fast, secure wiring and simplified field maintenance, combined with a slim, end-on case and integral DIN rail mounting for space-saving installations.
  • Rugged, industrial-grade design optimized for harsh environments, offering a robust solution for factory floors, outdoor enclosures, and mobile equipment (exact operating range available in official specifications).
  • User-friendly configuration and management through standard network tools and Brainboxes utilities, enabling straightforward port setup, baud rates, parity, and timing to match your serial devices and application requirements.

How to install Brainboxes Industrial Ethernet to Serial 2xRS232/422/485

Installing the Brainboxes ES-522 is a straightforward process that minimizes downtime and maximizes reliability in automated systems.

Step 1: Plan the installation. Identify the two serial devices that will connect to the ES-522 ports and determine whether each link will use RS232, RS422 full duplex, or RS422 half duplex. Check that your Ethernet network has appropriate IP addressing and that you have the necessary configuration tools from Brainboxes or your network management software.

Step 2: Mount the device. Attach the ES-522 to a suitable DIN rail or panel location. If you are using the removable screw-terminal blocks, ensure the chassis is accessible for easy wiring and future maintenance. The compact, end-on design helps you fit the unit into tight control cabinets or equipment enclosures.

Step 3: Wire the serial connections. Connect your RS-232 or RS-422/485 devices to the corresponding screw terminals as required. For RS-422/485, observe the correct A/B differential lines and termination recommendations if your network requires biasing or line termination. Verify pinouts against your devices to prevent cross-wiring and ensure stable signal integrity.

Step 4: Connect Ethernet and power. Run an Ethernet cable from your network switch or gateway to the ES-522’s Ethernet port. Provide the appropriate power supply per the official specifications. Powering the unit will initiate the boot process and prepare it for configuration.

Step 5: Configure port settings. Use the Brainboxes configuration utility or the connected network management tool to assign IP settings (static or DHCP as supported), select the desired serial mode for each port (RS232, RS422/485 full duplex, or RS422 half duplex), and configure baud rate, data bits, parity, and stop bits to match the connected devices. Save the configuration and reboot if required.

Step 6: Validate operation. Test each serial link with a terminal program or SCADA/HMI software to confirm that data is transmitted correctly over the Ethernet bridge. Check for data integrity, latency, and any error indicators in the device’s status or management interface. If issues arise, revisit wiring and serial parameters to ensure compatibility with your devices.

Step 7: Integrate into the workflow. Once validated, document the configuration for ongoing maintenance and integrate the ES-522 into your network topology, firewall rules, and monitoring dashboards to ensure continuous visibility and control over your serial-enabled assets.

Good fit for Acura MDX
Size: 8.8" x 9.3" x 1.1"
This is an air cabin filter that will fit many cars, and in my case a 2019 MDX. Since this kind of filter is not doing anything critical like keeping dirt out of an engine, I shop around for non-OEM filters for something that strikes a balance between price versus performance. This filter just filters out dust in a car cabin, and when we’re not in our cars, we don’t have the benefit of an air filter when we are walking around outdoors. At a fraction of the price of an Acura filter, this filter seems to strike that balance. The filter media looks sturdy and is embedded with charcoal to help absorb odors. Installation is very straightforward in my MDX, and similar in most cars. There is a compartment door inside the glovebox that first must be removed before changing the filter. Pay attention to the direction flow arrow that shows which way the filter should be installed. Overall I am satisfied with this filter. It is inexpensive, fits perfectly, and seems to do the job just fine. It is definitely worth trying if you are trying to save money.

These filters do the job
Size: 2Pcs
Fits great in my '08 Accord LX and my '19 Accord Sport 2.0t. They filter air well and are easy to install like any cabin air filter in a Honda. I am pleased. Good value for the price.

Fit my 2014 Odyssey TE
Size: 8.8" x 9.3" x 1.1"
Comes with printed instructions for those who haven't changed it before. Here is the specific use case from my van. On my 2014 TE its easy to access behind the glove box, open to usual full open then just push the left and right sides in to allow the glove box to come fully out. It may pop off of the mounts, don't panic it snaps right back on. Then look for the little rectangular panel with two small levers on either side. on the black plastic under the dash that you can now see and access. Press the levers and pull towards you, doing a bit of a wiggle to get it out. Its tight, but it will come out with having to break it. Don't gorilla hands it, it will break. There is a directional arrow on the filter, which you have to remove from the wrapper before installing. Yes, someone *will* forget that. Reassembly the reverse of removal. Check that video sharing site online if you need visual instructions.

K&N Filters are worth their cost in Filtration and Longevity!
Size: 8.3" x 8.4" x 0.6"
Tight fit, never needs replacement, only cleaning and reoiling. It has taken many miles to allow flow to resume after oiling for initial installation. Cold air intakes on numerous vehicles! I Love K&N filters for better filtartion and eventually cost savings!
