The one that I have has the same listed features as the one you have displayed but cannot provide COM port usage which is essential to telescope control. So I only use it for remote USB hard-drive storage.

when you say COM protocols, do you mean a serial port?
the USB to IP bridge is just for that, to transport USB traffic over IP.
For serial data, you need the USB to serial adaptor which i've mentioned.
so you attach this inline to your bridge for serial ports which will provide serial communication over a COM port (the driver maps to a virtual COM port), and you use the USB ports for USB devices like the cameras.
