EXSYS EX-42372IS Tarjeta PCI serie de 2 puertos RS-422/485 con protección contra sobretensión, Low Profile

Industrial PCs and legacy equipment often need reliable RS-422/485 serial connectivity, but many modern systems lack these ports. The EXSYS EX-42372IS solves this by adding two high-speed RS-422/485 ports through a PCI slot, with robust surge protection to guard against electrical transients.

Who is it for

This card is ideal for system integrators, industrial automation engineers, and IT professionals who need to connect devices such as PLCs, sensors, barcode scanners, or POS terminals to a desktop computer. Its low-profile form factor makes it suitable for slimline or small form factor PCs.

Main features

• Two RS-422/485 serial ports with DB9 male connectors
• 15KV ESD and 600W surge protection on each port
• Supports RS-422 full duplex and RS-485 half/full duplex modes
• 128-byte FIFO buffer per port for smooth data flow
• Data rates up to 921.6 Kbps
• Includes both low-profile and standard brackets
• Universal PCI (3.3V/5V) compatibility

Tips

For RS-485 networks, enable the 120 Ohm termination only on the devices at the ends of the bus to avoid signal reflections. The included low-profile bracket allows installation in slim desktop cases.
