If you’re designing a new system (which will thus likely run on 3.3V) and it needs to be small,
the XPort is a great product. For hackers, or if you’re adding to an existing 5V system, the
SitePlayer or the Cobox Micro is better. Many prefer the SitePlayer because it has a slightly
more modern configuration style.
Configuring the XPort
In its default configuration, the XPort responds on a single IP address and on a number of
different ports:
Port 10001: Serial-to-Ethernet gateway
Port 9999: Text-based configuration
Port 80: Web-based configuration
