Introduction
 

MOXA C320Turbo series, specially designed for flexibility, is an ideal multiport serial controller for PCs. It allows users to begin with a small-range system with 8 ports and expand up to 128 ports, depending on business growth. In addition, users have different options for control boards (PCI or ISA), connection modules (rackmount or desktop), and COM port interface (RS-232 or RS-422). Any combination of these options is possible in one system. Besides, with high speed I/O trunk design between the control board and connection module, the connection module can be located as far away as 100 meters. Since only one cable is needed, this ensures that one PC can control multiple remote serial devices with the least cost on cabling layout.

Benefits

  • Serves your expansion needs well into the future, protecting your investment
  • Large on-board buffer for high-performance communication
  • Provides true flexibility, with the best choice of bus platform, connector type, COM port interface, and connection module

Applications

  • Industrial automation
  • Remote data acquisition
  • Network console management
  • Telecommunications
  • Internet/Intranet server
  • RAS (Remote access services)
