The Moxa 8-port RS-232 connection boxes are designed for convenient and efficient connection of multiple serial devices to a serial board. With available interfaces including DB9, 8-pin RJ45, and DB25 connectors, they offer maximum flexibility for system integration in industrial environments.

Each device port is equipped with TxD and RxD LEDs, allowing for real-time monitoring of data transmission. The OPT 8S model variants include enhanced protection with ESD and EFT surge protection, making them highly resilient in electrically noisy conditions.
