The PCI-1620 is an eight port RS-232, and PCI-1622 is an eight port RS-422/485 PCI communication card that are compatible with the PCI 2.2 bus specification, and offer transmission speeds up to 921.6 kbps.It also supports any baud rate setting, for example 500 kbps is acceptable. PCI-1620 and PCI-1622 also come with high-performance OXuPC1954 UART with a 128- byte FIFO to reduce CPU load. These components make your system more stable and reliable. Thus, the PCI-1620 and PCI-1622 are especially suitable for multitasking environments.<BR>The PCI-1620 and PCI-1622 have an universal PCI connector that is compatible with both the latest 3.3 V signaling systems and the traditional 5V signaling system. This gives high compatibility and allows usage in diverse systems. To further increase reliability, the PCI-1620 and PCI-1622 offer EFT protection technology, protecting your system from electrical surges up to 2,500 voltage. The PCI-1622C also provides 2,500 voltage optical isolation to protect your PC and equipment against damages from ground loops in harsh environments.
