A network device that connect many serial devices e.g. terminals or modems to a LAN through one network connection. Anyone on a serial device can then connect to various hosts on the network.
A terminal server is a computing device to which a terminal can connect over a LAN or WAN link. A terminal communicates with the terminal server over an asynchronous serial port (typically an RS-232 port) through a modem. A terminal converts the data it receives from the terminal server into a display and does no further processing of the data.
A LAN device that allows asynchronous dumb terminals to communicate with a host computer also attached to the LAN. It is useful in minimizing the amount of cabling where several terminals need to be attached to a mainframe.
A device that connects many terminals (and similar devices) to a LAN through one network connection. See also: Local Area Network.
An adapter that connects serial cables ( e.g. RS-232, RS-422, RS-449, RS-485) to Ethernet ports. Also see serial port, RS-232, and Ethernet.
A communications processor that connects asynchronous devices to any local or wide area network that uses the TCP/IP, X.25, or LAT protocol suites.

A computer with multiple modem ports and a connection to a LAN or host machine. A terminal server handles all incoming modem calls and routes them to the appropriate locations. Most terminal servers support either SLIP or PPP connections.
Computer hardware that allows the operation of software programs in another computer, which can be in other locations. Terminal server for JOMIS is located in Juneau.
A machine that connects terminals to a network by providing host TELNET service.
A device to connect many serial connections to a LAN.
A special purpose computer that has places to plug in many modems on one side, and a connection to a LAN or host machine on the other side. Thus the terminal server does the work of answering the calls and passes the connections on to the appropriate node. The terminal server here at WcNet is Xyplex and it provides PPP connections. See Also: LAN , Modem , Host , Node , PPP , SLIP
A special purpose computer that has multiple modems ports on one side, and a connection to a LAN or host machine on the other side. Terminal servers answer calls and route the connections on to the appropriate node (single PC).
a node that connects a specific number of terminals with the network
A point of access to a network. Also called remote access servers.
A device that connects terminals and modems to a network. Terminal server is synonymous with access server.
A special purpose computer that has places to plug in many modems on one side and connection to a LAN or Host machine on the other side. Thus the terminal does that work of answering the calls and passed the connections on to the a appropriate work station.
A special-purpose communications device that provides LAT connections between its ports and other LAT nodes. Also, a host running software that performs terminal server functions, such as an IRIS system running 4DLT software.
A small, specialized, networked computer that connects many terminals to a LAN through one network connection. Any user on the network can then connect to various network hosts.
A concentrator that facilitates communication between hosts and terminals.
A device that connects many terminals to a LAN through one network connection. A terminal server can also connect many network users to its asynchronous ports for dial-out capabilities and printer access. See also Local Area Network. WWWebfx Home Page
A computer or controller used to connect multiple terminals to a network or host computer.
This is also a small box that has usually 8 ports. 8 terminals can be hooked up to this server and this allows them to communicate with the LAN.
A special purpose computer that has places to plug in many modems on one side, and a connection to a LAN or host machine on the other side. Thus the terminal server does the work of answering the calls and passes the connections on to the appropriate node. Most terminal servers can provide PPP or SLIP services if connected to the Internet. Also See: LAN, Modem, Host, Node, PPP and SLIP
A device that connects terminals to a network that is typically running Ethernet.
A device connecting many terminals to a network usually used to reduce the number of cables needed to connect terminals to a mainframe. The terminal server allows terminals to use the LAN as a connection point instead of direct RS-232 serial cables. A terminal server can also connect many network users to its asynchronous ports for dial-out capabilities and printer access. See also LAN.

n. In a local area network, a computer or controller that allows terminals, microcomputers, and other devices to connect to a network or host computer or to devices attached to that computer. See also controller, LAN, microcomputer, terminal.

Historically, a terminal server is a device that attaches to serial RS-232 devices, such as green screen 'VT' terminals or serial printers, and transports this traffic via TCP/IP TELNET, SSH or other vendor-specific protocol (i.e.
