MOXA CP-104N Series

The CP-104N is a Mini PCI Express multiport serial board designed for varies applications such as industrial automation system and industrial PC manufacturers. The CP-104N is compatible with any Mini PCI Express slot. The board requires only a 3.3 VDC power supply, which means it can work with host computers ranging from DIN-rail PCs to standard-sized PCs.

The CP-104N is a top choice of industrial automation engineers and system integrators and supports Windows and Linux operating systems. In addition, the four RS-232 serial ports support a fast 921.6 kbps baudrate. The CP-104N provides full-modem control signals to ensure compatibility with a wide range of serial peripherals. It also provides 1 kV line-to-line surge protection and 2.5 kV isolation (for the I model), ensuring compatibility in a wide range of industrial environments.


A New Family of Mini PCI Express Multiport Serial Boards for Faster Time to Market

Moxa’s new Mini PCI Express multiport serial board family fulfills the need for customized expansion and enables faster time to market for OEMs and system integrators. It includes Isolated and non-Isolated RS-232/422/485 communication cards for various applications.

The serial boards feature high performance 16C950 compatible UARTs and are available in 4-port and 2-port versions compatible with all popular operating systems. They support data rates of up to 921.6 kbps and have 128-byte transmit and receive FIFOs. The serial boards can operate in the -40 to 85˚C temperature range. Door backets are included in the package for all models, enabling the installation of the serial boards in a Moxa IPC expansion slot.
