The USB-4COMi-M 4-Port RS-422 / 485 USB to Serial Adapter combines serial communication signals, RS-422 and RS-485 port with USB technology to allow further expansion of existing serial devices.
Newer PC’s and Laptops are now being manufactured without serial COM ports, because of this, even new technology PC’s or Laptops can utilize this 4-Port RS-422 / RS-485 adapter. The high speed serial adapter carries with it the 128 byte FIFO chip that allows for high speed communication, even in heavy loaded systems.
The serial adapter also allows unusual speed settings like 500.000bps. Our unit’s unique features help to reduce the system load. The USB-4COMi-M utilizes four external DIP switches for easy RS-422, RS-485 mode settings. This device is constructed with industrial metal housing and offers a DIN rail bracket and DIP switch mode settings for RS-485 signals.
