The digital transformation of healthcare is advancing at high speed. More and more processes are digitally supported, data flows are increasing, and the demand for secure, stable IT infrastructure continues to grow. While new medical devices are usually network-enabled, many proven systems still rely on serial interfaces. This is where the new Digi Connect® EZ WS, now available from BRESSNER Technology, comes into play.

The compact Serial-to-Ethernet server ensures that older and standards-compliant medical devices can be reliably integrated into modern networks – without compromising on security or compliance.

Why secure connectivity is essential

Hospitals and other healthcare facilities are facing greater challenges than ever before. They must consolidate data from different sources, comply with strict data protection standards, and at the same time ensure smooth clinical operations.

Seamless communication between medical devices and central IT systems forms the foundation for efficient workflows and comprehensive patient care. However, different interfaces and proprietary protocols often make integration difficult. With the Digi Connect® EZ WS, this barrier can be overcome.

What makes the Digi Connect® EZ WS stand out

The serial server has been specifically designed for clinical environments and is certified according to IEC 60601 3rd Edition. This ensures compliance with safety requirements for devices used in close proximity to patients.

Key technical highlights include:

• Four serial RS-232 ports with flexible Digi RealPort® technology for secure and stable M2M data communication – whether for local or remote device management
• WLAN and Ethernet interfaces, compatible with different hospital infrastructures
• Support for Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) for flexible power supply
• Digi TrustFence® security framework with encryption, VPN options, and centralized authentication
• Fast setup and management via Digi Navigator™ and Digi Remote Manager® - cloud or on premisses options available
• Includes one year of Digi LifeCycle Assurance for maximum uptime and proactive 24/7 expert support

This makes the device the perfect bridge between established medical technology and modern IT systems, enabling sustainable integration.

Benefits for hospitals and facilities

For use in hospitals, laboratories, or medical practices, the Digi Connect® EZ WS delivers clear advantages:

• Existing devices can be integrated into IP networks without the need for costly replacements.
• Security and compliance requirements are met, reducing certification efforts.
• Centralized management via Digi Remote Manager® simplifies monitoring and maintenance of large device fleets.

Flexibility is a key strength: whether wired or wireless networks, cloud-based or local management – the system adapts to the existing infrastructure.

Practical use cases

In real-world scenarios, the Digi Connect® EZ WS unlocks a wide range of applications. Diagnostic devices that only feature a serial interface can be seamlessly integrated into hospital information systems. The device also provides an effective solution for remote maintenance: service technicians can securely access connected systems without being physically on-site. Finally, the technology enables encrypted transmission of sensitive patient data in real time.
