EXSYS EX-42034IS scheda seriale PCI 4 porte RS-232/422/485 con protezione da sovratensione e isolamento ottico

The EX-42034IS stands out by combining four serial ports with both optical isolation and surge protection on a single PCI card, making it suitable for industrial and harsh electrical environments where typical serial cards fail.

Highlights

• Four independent serial ports supporting RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 standards
• 2.5 kV optical isolation per port prevents ground loops and noise
• 15 kV ESD surge protection on RS-232 lines and 600W surge protection on RS-422/485
• FTDI chipset ensures broad OS compatibility and reliable performance
• Data rates up to 921.6 Kbps (RS-232) and 1 Mbps (RS-422/485)

In daily use

Each port appears as a standard COM port in Windows, Linux, and macOS, allowing legacy industrial devices, POS terminals, and laboratory instruments to connect without proprietary drivers. The 128-byte FIFO buffer per direction reduces CPU load during continuous data streaming.
