PMC-SIO4BX - Multi-Protocol Serial I/O with Software Configurable Cable Transceivers (RS422, RS232 and others)

The PMC-SI04BX board is a four channel serial interface card which provides high speed, full-duplex, multi-protocol serial capability for PMC applications. The SIO4BX combines two multi-protocol Dual Universal Serial Controllers (USC®), 8 external FIFOs, and multi-protocol transceivers to provide four fully independent asynchronous or synchronous serial channels.

Multiprotocol Transceivers support RS422 (V.11)/RS485, RS423 (V.10), RS232 (V.28), V.35, RS530, as well as other Mixed Protocol modes. These features, along with a high performance PCI interface engine, give the PMC-SIO4BX unsurpassed performance in a serial interface card.

cPCI-SIO4BX - High-performance Multi-Protocol Serial I/O CompactPCI Board with Software Configurable Cable Transceivers (RS422, RS232 and others)

The General Standards cPCI-SI04BX board is a four channel serial interface 3U CompactPCI card which provides high speed, full-duplex, multi-protocol serial capability for CompactPCI applications. The cPCI-SIO4BX combines two multi-protocol Dual Universal Serial Controllers (USC®), 8 external FIFOs, and multi-protocol transceivers to provide four fully independent asynchronous or synchronous serial channels. Multiprotocol Transceivers support RS422 (V.11)/RS485, RS423 (V.10), RS232 (V.28), V.35, RS530, as well as other Mixed Protocol modes. These features, along with a high performance PCI interface engine, give the cPCI-SIO4BX unsurpassed performance in a serial interface card. This product currently consists of a PMC-SIO4BX on a PMC to cPCI adapter.

PMC-SIO4BX-SYNC - Quad Channel Synchronous Serial To Parallel Controller with Software Configurable Cable Transceivers (RS422, RS232 and others)

The General Standards SI04BX-SYNC board is a four channel serial interface card which provides a simple synchronous serial interface capability for PMC applications. The SIO4BX-SYNC combines a flexible parallel/serial converter and 8 external FIFOs to provide four fully independent synchronous serial channels. These features, along with a high performance PCI interface engine, give the SIO4BX-SYNC unsurpassed performance in a serial interface card. The SIO4BX-SYNC features software configurable cable transceivers (RS422, RS232 and others).
