RS422 PCIe compact module

The RS422 PCIe compact module contains two electrically isolated ix Industrial® type B sockets for high-speed serial data transmission. Two ix Industrial® type B to D-Sub, 9-pin adapter cables are required (order identifier C9900-K922). The adapter cables are 45 cm long. The signal transfer takes place symmetrically.

The channels are protected by a common overvoltage protection. If an overvoltage occurs at one of the channels, both channels are switched off.
