Moxa CP-104EL-A-DB25M

The CP-104EL-A Series from Moxa delivers compact and high-performance 4-port RS-232 serial communication over PCI Express. Designed for POS systems, ATMs, and industrial automation applications, it complies with PCI Express 1.0 and features a low-profile design that fits into smaller PC enclosures. Each of the four ports supports a baudrate of up to 921.6 kbps with a 128-byte FIFO and built-in hardware and software flow control for efficient data transmission.

Maintenance is simplified with built-in Tx/Rx LEDs per port, and extensive operating system support—including Windows, Linux, and UNIX—ensures compatibility in diverse environments. A DB44 connector enables access to four RS-232 ports through a single breakout cable (DB9 or DB25).
