This is the first software of its kind which includes both local and network virtual COM port functions. It can share your real COM ports or create virtual COM ports and connect them with a virtual null-modem cable locally or through the network.
Redirect all data sent from one serial port to any other serial port with Advanced COM Port Redirector. All data sent to redirected COM port would be received by redirection port and vice versa. It works under almost all modern Windows OS versions.
Virtual Serial Port ActiveX control creates a virtual port and lets you view and control any data sent to virtual com port by other applications and respond to them by sending your own data to virtual port. Offers full software serial port emulation.
Create virtual serial port directly from your application and work with it. Full serial port software emulation. Compatible with VB, VC++, C++ Builder and Delphi.

Serial Port Terminal
$39.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH
Advanced Serial Port Terminal is a session-based, multi-purpose application that provides simple communication interface to connect to any serial port device (modem;fax;GPS;mouse;printer and so on). Whether you want to connect to remote computer using null-modem cable, send or receive various types of data (ASCII string, binary, octal and hexadecimal) over a serial line, redirect input or output data streams into a specified file, monitor data exchange between serial devices, troubleshoot and test modem settings, Advanced Serial Port Terminal by Eltima Software is just for you. Advanced Serial Port Terminal allows you to open as many serial ports as you like (including virtual serial ports); dynamically change serial port settings without necessity to close and reopen current port; adjust baudrate, databits, parity, stop bits, flow control parameters; save all received bytes into a file for later analysis and lots more. Being a session-based tool, Advanced Serial Port Terminal allows creation of options set and saving them under individual session names for different hosts. Unlike other terminals you may not only send, but also receive and view data in hexadecimal format, switch between dump and terminal view modes, etc, which could be very useful for debugging and testing serial port connections. Highly customizable interface lets you easily customize program interface to your taste and needs.

Serial to Ethernet Connector
$99.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH
Serial to Ethernet Connector is an advanced software solution developed to share serial port devices over TCP/IP network. Thus, any serial port device connected to COM port at local PC could be accessed from anywhere in the world via internet, for example. When the attached serial port device sends communication data it will be actually transmitted over TCP/IP network. Such behavior is achieved due to the use of virtual serial port technology which emulates standard COM ports. In that case Windows OS treats virtual serial ports in the same way as real ones therefore you are no longer limited to just two real ports (any number of physical ports you have) per system and may create COM port connections without occupying any real serial port. Formerly known as VSPD.Net, Serial to Ethernet Connector has a completely new interface and greatly revamped engine. It allows you to use three different types to connect to remote computer. The first type is port-to-port connection, which lets you connect two computers through TCP/IP network. In this way you can emulate virtual null-modem cable connection. Serial to Ethernet Connector allows you to customize remote serial port settings locally or dynamically fetch these settings from the remote end. Second type is the port-to-TCP client, which allows you to connect to remote server and send/receive communication serial data over TCP/IP network. Once connection is established, all data sent from remote serial port device, attached to the server, will be genuinely delivered to local serial port where it can be further processed. The last type is the port-to-TCP server which allows you establish multiple connections to local serial port device and redistribute COM port device data all over the world. Server listens to all incoming connections at the defined TCP port and redirects input/output serial data to TCP/IP network. Serial to Ethernet Connector can be easily configured for current demands.

Serial Splitter
$99.95 - ELTIMA Software GmbH
Serial Splitter (by Eltima Software ) is an advanced application which lets you split serial ports at one side into multiple virtual and real serial ports at the other one, as well as join multiple serial ports into one. Serial Splitter can be used to execute the following operations: split real or virtual serial port into several others, join several serial ports (virtual or real) into one, redirect dataflow from virtual serial ports to the real ones or between virtual or real serial ports and organize complex bundles with multiple ports at both sides. Since version 3.0 Serial Splitter features unique ports bundles approach, which lets you split serial ports at one side into multiple virtual and real serial ports at the other one, as well as join multiple serial ports into one. Another unique feature is many-to-many ports splitting/redirection: you can have multiple serial ports at both sides of a bundle; the data will be redirected from several incoming ports to several outgoing ports. Using our technology of setting main ports at both sides of a bundle, you will be able to easily manage hardware control lines. Note, that both sides of a bundle can have virtual serial ports and real serial ports installed. So, Serial Splitter, based on Windows kernel drivers technology and Eltima Virtual Serial Ports Driver, will enable you to share real serial port between several applications in a way that all applications will receive the same data from one serial port simultaneously. It is achieved by creating virtual serial ports, which are same copies of real ones. Each application will think that it is working with serial port in exclusive mode. One of them will be able also to send data to real serial port. Now you can connect two or more applications to one real serial port with only several clicks.

USB over IP Network
$79.95 - Virtual Serial Port Software
USB over IP Network lets you connect to any USB device located on a remote PC on a local network or the Internet. You will be able to work with it as with a local USB device and applications working with it won't even see the difference. USB over IP Network works with a USB driver at the system level. It intercepts USB port activity for the shared device and redirects it via TCP/IP to a remote site, where it is handled appropriately. To achieve such functionality, USB over IP Network is installed on both computers that take part in the communication process. Therefore, USB over IP Network uses client-server architecture (server side has the USB device physically attached to it, while client side connects to remote server and uses the services it provides), but each side can be a client and a server at the same time. USB over IP Network shares USB ports rather than devices. The benefit of this approach is that you may plug in a USB device, connect to it from the remote host, detach the device and plug in another one, and it will automatically appear at the client side. Among its key-features are an unlimited number of USB devices that can be shared, auto-connecting to new USB devices whenever you plug them in and working with virtual machines. Shared USB ports are also automatically re-configured every time you boot your PC. The program is fully compatible with Windows 2000/XP/2003 and with HyperThreaded and multi-processor systems. An advanced and robust architecture, a wide range of supported USB devices and standards, and the simplicity of use make USB over IP Network a real pleasure to work with.

Link Commander Lite
$19.95 - Resort Labs
In 1994, there was not much to see on the Internet. I had only a few links in my Internet Explorer favorites. However, when a friend had recommended to me that I try Netscape, I immediately faced the bookmarks synchronization problem.
Now I have 3 different browsers at work, 2 browsers at home and another one is installed on my notebook. I use hundreds of bookmarks and need to regularly synchronize them between all my computers and Web browsers. Unfortunately, none of them contains a reliable bookmark manager that is
compatible with the others.
What I need is a stand-alone browser-independent bookmark solution. I tried many of them but finally looked no further when I found Link Commander from Resort Labs. This feature-rich bookmark manager has all the features to please every user, from a novice to an IT professional.
Link Commander is browser-independent. This means that it does not require any specific browser, but rather supports them all. It can export/import links to/from virtually every modern browser. Link Commander instantly monitors your open browser windows and clipboard for URLs and is able to add
a bookmark whenever you need it, from whatever browser you happen to be using at the moment.
Link Commander provides advanced capabilities to manage your bookmarks: searching, link validation, automated duplicate elimination, etc. A bookmarks collection can also be protected with a password. You can open bookmarks with any browser installed on your computer.
For Link Commander, a Bookmark is not just a URL. When you add a bookmark, the program analyzes the page you bookmarked and retrieves additional info from it, such as title, short description, keywords, etc. This info helps when you through your bookmarks collection.
Several instances of your Link Commander bookmarks collection can be easily synchronized or moved using the Internet or a memory stick.
