Overview

The Moxa CP-132EL and CP-132EL-I are 2-port PCI Express boards designed for industrial automation applications that require a long distance, multi-point, PC-based data acquisition solution.

RS-485 multidrop for up to 32 devices within 1.2 km
The CP-132EL/EL-I boards have 2 RS-422/485 serial ports, each of which can achieve data rates up to 921.6 Kbps. In RS-485 mode, the boards can connect up to 32 daisy-chained RS-485 devices within a range of 1.2 km. For long distance RS-485 communication, choose the CP-132EL-I model, which comes with 2 KV optical isolation protection to prevent equipment damage.

Drivers Provided for Windows and Linux
Moxa continues to support a wide variety of operating systems, and the CP-132EL/EL-I boards are no exception. Reliable Windows COM and Linux TTY drivers are provided for all Moxa boards, and other operating systems, such as WEPOS, are also supported for embedded integration.
