About the SPEED LE Serial Adaptor cards
The SPEED LE Serial Adaptor cards are multi-port cards which provide extra serial ports for
EIA-232, peripherals. These cards plug into your PC servers and provide 1,2, 4, or 8 high
speed ports suitable for remote access, data collection, point of sale or any other EIA-232,
applications.
You use the SPEED LE serial adaptor cards when you want a robust entry level solution for
the small office or point of sale applications. Typically you use SPEED LE serial adaptor
cards because you want to add extra serial ports to an existing computer system rather than
replacing it with the considerable cost that entails. Higher data rates and ESD protection in
the SPEED LE serial adaptor cards make it suitable for any modem or ISDN TA application.
Note
To use the SPEED LE serial adaptor cards you must first install the drivers supplied with
the card and then configure each card as required prior to mechanical installation. The
installation procedure varies for different operating systems. Please read
