Taipei, Taiwan, Jan. 7, 2008- The amount of energy from the sun that reaches Earth each day is enormous. All the energy stored in Earth's reserves of coal, oil, and natural gas is equal to the energy in just 20 days of sunshine. While desert areas such as Arizona and Nevada get more sun than other parts of the United States, most areas receive enough sunshine to make solar energy practical.

For example, we can put the sun to work on the farm. Solar energy can be used in agriculture in a number of ways, saving money, increasing self-reliance, and reducing pollution. The role of solar panels is to convert solar energy to electrical energy. Electric energy control devices, through serial data will be sent. The solar energy powers up a telemetry device to detect rainfall and river flow, and our serial device server can be installed to remotely control, manage, and monitor the telemetry devices.

Korenix JetPort 5604 is a 4-port Redundant Serial Device Server. JetPort 5604 provides four 3-in-1 RS232/422/485 serial interfaces.
