JetCard 1208L Overview

Overview Specifications Ordering Information Datasheet

8 Ports RS-232 Universal PCI Low Profile Card  Supports 32-bit Universal PCI Bus Low profile form factor fits small-sized PCs Up to 921.6Kbps high speed data transmission Built-in 15KV ESD Protection Supports 128-byte FIFO Driver supported Windows 7 / Vista /ME/ 2K/ XP

JetCard 1208L is Korenix's 8-port RS-232 Universal PCI Low Profile Communication Card, which supports both 3.3V and 5V slots and is specifically designed to fit in small systems. The 8-port UPCI low profile card allows users to connect multiple serial devices to the host becoming and ideal solution for applications in retail and POS systems, traffic operation centers, banking systems, etc..

High Performance
JetCard Series use Oxford OXmPCI954 chip, a 8-port Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter, which is well-known for its high performance. Each UART channel in the JetCard offers data transmission speed up to 921.6 Kbps, and bi-directional 128-byte FIFO for each port. Deep FIFO can reduce the CPU's loading, saving CPU's resources for other important tasks. This chip also allows JetCard to be compatible with the widely-used industry-standard 16C950 devices and PCI bus.

In addition to high speed of 921.6 Kbps and 128-byte FIFO, Oxford chip also equips JetCard with on board flow control function. Instead of using a driver on the PC to control the traffic flow, JetCard uses the onboard flow control function to reacts directly without waiting for the PC to respond. In this way, the respond time and CPU's loading can be largely reduced, greatly enhancing your system's performance. You can either choose software flow control, which uses Tx and Rx to send/ receive XON/XOFF signals, or select hardware flow control, which uses CTS#/RTS# to send/ receive the signals. The flow control function is to prevent FIFO from overflow. JetCard is ideally suitable for PC applications, enabling PC users to take advantage of the maximum performance of analog modem or ISDN terminal adapters. JetCard is also suitable for any communications that require high speed RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 interfaces.
