Acceleport Xe
ISA-based intelligent serial cards
RS-232 models are available in two-, four- or eight-port models, while the RS-422 models are offered with four or eight ports. The RS-422 solutions enable users to transmit signals over greater distances and at higher speeds than standard RS-232 communications and are generally immune to electrical interference and surges. These benefits make the RS-422 solution a smart choice for industrial and manufacturing applications as well as widespread point-of-sale operations.
For low-cost, accurate and dependable multiuser communications, the AccelePort Xe is one of the smartest connection that you can make.
