Dual 9-pin high speed 16550 UART serial ports – adds two COM ports to any PCI-equipped PC.
Maximum data throughput rate: 115.2 kbps on each port.
Power supplied on pins 1 (12 VDC) and pin 9 (5.0 VDC); other lines
supplied: RX, TX, GND, CTS, RTS.
Amperage on powered pins: 1.25 amps per port @ 20 degrees
nominal temperature polyfused.
Requires only one system IRQ – saves valuable resources for other expansion cards.
Both ports share one PCI bus IRQ – even when accessed simultaneously.
Automatically selects next available IRQ and COM addresses – just plug it in and go!
Includes Lava Com Port Redirect Utility for renaming COM Ports – allows for backward compatibility
with software that supports COM 1-4 only.
Compatible with RS-232 serial peripherals – including PDAs, digital cameras, bar-code scanners, and
UPSes.
Compliant with PCI Specification 2.2 5.0 volt PCI; 3.3 volt PCI for PCI-X slots also available.
