MOXA C218Turbo Series |
|
|
Highest Performance Serial I/O Solution |
Overview
|
|
|
MOXA C218Turbo series is
specifically designed for small but performance demanding
applications. With its state-of-the-art ASIC (Application Specific
Integrated Circuit), on-board RISC processor (TI TMS320), and large
I/O buffer (512 KB), the C218Turbo is a world class I/O serial board.
It can maintain a sustained 230.4 Kbps throughput on all eight ports
simultaneously while only occupying 5% of the host's processor time*,
freeing up more host resources for other tasks. This feature is
particularly applicable to fast response demanding industrial control
applications, and high speed telecommunication applications.
* The benchmark was set using the Equinox ComTach program on a
Pentium-233 platform running Windows NT 4.0. |
