Chapter 1: Introduction
These PCI Express Multiport Isolated Serial cards were designed for RS232, RS422 and
RS485 asynchronous communications for use in a variety of applications. These boards offer
compatibility with the PCI Express bus and are used by system integrators and manufacturers
in the design of industrial communication systems. The cards are available in 4-port and 2-
port versions and are compatible with all popular operating systems. The protocol (type) of
each port is software selectable between RS232/RS422/RS485 depending on the model
ordered. Each COM port is capable of supporting data rates up to 3Mbps (460.8kbps in
RS232 mode is standard) and implements full RS-232 modem control signals to ensure
compatibility with a wide range of serial peripherals. Existing serial peripherals can connect
directly to the industry standard DB9M connectors. The board features a x1 lane PCI Express
connector which can be used in any length PCI Express slot.
