Embedded processor module is top innovation
The Lantronix XPort Architect with Evolution networking operating system was awarded the EDN Innovation of the Year award at the Embedded Systems Conference in San Jose.

The Lantronix EDS16/32PR delivers enterprise-grade security by supporting IT standards such as SSH2.0, SSL 3.0 and AES.
This provides complete end-to-end security, from ensuring data is received from a responsible source to validating the integrity of the data during transmission.
The Evolution device server's security and encryption capabilities not only protect data but also provide protection from denial of service (DoS) attacks, including man-in-the-middle and port mapping.
IT administrators can also flexibly integrate other encryption schemes directly into their application using the Lantronix encryption library suite.
Secure monitoring and managing a large number of devices over a network has never been easier.
RSS and e-mail alerts can be used to track configuration changes, as well as monitor and log connection and device status information, reducing time and resources required to manage and troubleshoot large numbers of devices on the network.
With its familiar "Cisco-like" command line interface, the EDS16/32PR makes command line configuration and control simple.
The configurable XML-based architecture and built-in file system on the EDS16/32PR allow users to easily import and export configuration and status records and rapidly develop custom Web pages for their specific application environment.
The EDS16/32PR is available now worldwide through Lantronix partners and distributors.
