Edgeport/412, Edgeport/416

The Edgeport/412 and Edgeport/416 utilize a standards-based USB bus for connectivity, unlike many serial card products which require additional external proprietary hardware to support the same number of devices. This Edgeport also supplies four USB ports, providing users with a built-in migration path as peripherals become USB- ready. The converters can be rack mounted and easily daisy-chained together. These Edgeport converters are available in two models: one with DB25 connectors and one with DB9 connectors. The two models are functionally equal, but differ in the type and placement of the connectors.
