The Moxa CP-134U Series is a high-performance 4-port universal PCI serial board designed for industrial automation environments that demand long-distance and multi-drop data communication. Supporting RS-422/485 on all four ports – with RS-232 additionally available on ports 1 and 2 – the board is perfect for PC-based data acquisition across distances of up to 1.2 km.
Powered by the Moxa Turbo Serial Engine™ chip with ADDC® automatic data direction control, the CP-134U Series ensures precise RS-485 communication, high transmission speeds of up to 921.6 kbps, and smooth data flow with a 128-byte FIFO buffer. Optional 2 kV isolation and wide temperature variants (-40 to 85 °C) make this board ideal for rugged industrial settings.
Comprehensive driver support for Windows, Linux, and UNIX platforms guarantees easy integration across diverse systems.
