Adapter adds serial comms options to PC/104
Sealevel Systems has expanded its PC/104 product line with the SIO.104+2, a dual-port RS232/422/485 interface adapter.
Serial adapter fits both PCI slots
The latest addition to the popular PCI product line from Sealevel Systems is the Ultra Comm+2.LPCI, a dual-port low-profile PCIbus serial I/O adapter.
In addition to protection from electrical damage, the SeaI/O-270U includes Sealevel's patent-pending SeaLatch locking USB connector design to prevent accidental cable disconnection of both upstream and downstream USB ports.
The SeaI/O-270U provides up to 1500V AC protection from harmful voltages injected on USB peripheral cabling.
Status LEDs on the hub indicate external power, connection to the host, and fault conditions.
The hub is housed in a rugged metal enclosure and each of the seven USB downstream connections provides a full 500mA of power suitable for all USB peripherals.
SeaI/O-270U hubs are supported in Windows, Linux, and all other operating systems that recognise USB.
Simply provide power to the hub using the included power supply, plug the hub into an available USB port with the included cable, and the hub is automatically recognised.
Standard SeaI/O-270U hubs operate between 0 to +70C and designers can special-order extended temperature range (-40 to +85C) hubs.
SeaI/O-270U hubs are available now and prices start at US $379.
