Introduction

The CP-132EL Series of 2-port PCI Express boards are designed for industrial automation applications that require a long-distance, multipoint, PC-based data acquisition solution.

RS-485 Multidrop for up to 31 Devices Within 1.2 km

The CP-132EL Series boards have two RS-422/485 serial ports, each of which can achieve data rates up to 921.6 kbps. In RS-485 mode, the boards can connect up to 31 daisy-chained RS-485 devices within a range of 1.2 km. For long-distance RS-485 communication, choose the CP-132EL-I model, which comes with 2 kV electrical isolation protection to prevent equipment damage.

Drivers Provided for Windows, Linux, and UNIX

Moxa continues to support a wide variety of operating systems, and the CP-132EL Series is no exception. Reliable Windows and Linux drivers are provided for all Moxa boards, and other operating systems, such as WEPOS, are also supported for embedded integration.
