I expect I'm not using the right combination of search criteria to come up with this...
Is anyone here using a hardware RS232 (serial) to IP device to remote control a scanner over the internet. This device would replace a computer at a remote location and simply provide the TCP/IP to RS232 conversion. Obviously it would also have to pass audio. I am looking for a low power alternative to placing a PC at a remote location. I would likely use ProScan software.
I know there are devices for amateur radio use such as RemoteRig 1258MKIIS-SET | DUAL RCV CAPABLE REMOTE CONTROL SET W/ POWER SUPPLY! REMOTERIG , but at $479 it's probably just easier to buy a PC. I've found less expensive devices but they don't transmit/receive audio.
I know a low power device like a thin client running Windows or a Raspberry Pi could be used, but I'm looking just for the standalone Serial > IP hardware device.
If anyone has a solution could you please advise? Thanks in advance, and apologies if this has been covered elsewhere.
