The Moxa CP-114EL Series is a robust 4-port PCI Express serial board line supporting RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 interfaces. Designed for industrial settings like POS systems, ATMs, and factory automation, the CP-114EL supports up to 921.6 kbps baudrate per port and features a 128-byte FIFO with on-chip hardware and software flow control for stable and efficient communication.
Thanks to its low-profile form factor, the board fits compact PCs. The -I models add 2 kV galvanic isolation for enhanced protection in noisy environments. Drivers are available for Windows, Linux, and UNIX, and built-in LED indicators per port simplify troubleshooting.
