Universal PCI
Moxa's Universal PCI boards meet the new slot standard for serial boards that is being rapidly adopted by PC server manufacturers. In addition, Moxa's Universal PCI boards work with both 3.3-volt and 5-volt PCI slots, allowing MOXA boards to be used in virtually any PC available. We provide 2/4/8 independent RS-232/422/485 serial ports for connecting data acquisition equipment and many other serial devices to a PC.    >> See More  
 
 
RS-232 Serial Communication
RS-232 is a straightforward, universal, and commonly implemented serial interface. Despite its limited 15 m transmission distance, its low cost and easy wiring features make RS-232 the first choice for many applications. RS-232 establishes two-way (full-duplex) communications, with signals represented by voltage levels measured with respect to a system common ground (power/logic ground). The "idle" state (MARK) is negative with respect to the common ground, and the "active" state (SPACE) is positive with respect to common ground.    >> See More
 
 
RS-422/485 Serial Communication
Most devices used in today's industrial environments are designed for use with the RS-422/485 interface. This means that many users employ RS-422/485 serial communication boards in their PCs, allowing the PCs to connect to an industrial RS-422 or RS-485 network and transmit data over distances up to 1.2 km. The RS-422/485 standards overcome the transmission distance limitation by using a differential signal for transmitting data and control signals.    >> See More
