MOXA U PCI Board, 4 Port RS-422/485, w/ Isolation, Wide Temperature

The CP-134U and CP-134U-I 4-port universal PCI boards are designed for industrial automation applications that require a long distance,multi-point, PC-based data acquisition solution.

On-chip Automatic Data Direction Control for precision RS-485 communication

The CP-134U universal PCI board has 4 RS-422/485 serial ports, each of which can achieve data rates up to 921.6 Kbps. In RS-485 mode,the board can connect up to 31 daisy-chained RS-485 devices within a range of 1.2 km. For long distance RS-485 communication, choose the CP-134U-I, which comes with 2 KV optical isolation protection to prevent equipment damage.
