High-Speed, Highly Reliable Serial Connectivity
The Comtrol RocketPort Plus uPCI 422 8-Port SMPTE serial port expansion card
provides eight “native” serial ports utilizing a single PCI card slot and is compatible
with all current 3.3 and 5.0 Volt PCI bus architectures. The SMPTE interface
conforms to the Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineer standard, and
provides DB9F serial ports that support RS-422 serial communications at speeds
up to 921 Kbps. Every RocketPort serial card features the high-performance
RocketPort ASIC chip, consisting of a dedicated 44MHz processor that minimizes
host CPU utilization and larger transmit-and-receive buffers than those of 16550
UART chips used in standard PC serial ports and low-end serial cards. RocketPort
ASIC technology enables these cards to outperform other serial expansion cards by
handling the transmission of large amounts of data more reliably and efficiently.
Additionally, RocketPort products do not require the assignment of interrupts,
simplifying installation and eliminating conflicts with other server cards.
The product complies with the European RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC.
