Versatile Serial Connectivity - Achieve Total Compatibility with Custom Applications

The Latest in 16550 Technology - From the Inventors of the Multiport Serial Card Break free from legacy ISA - based 550 technology Integrate with any standard or custom application easily Eliminate support costs - proven reliability Deliver superior connectivity solutions at an affordable cost Install quickly

When you find that you have more serial devices than ports, RocketPort® 550 offers a quick, cost-effective solution. Each RocketPort 550 card adds 4 to 16 COM ports to your PC using only a single PCI slot and one IRQ. The Comtrol RocketPort 550 family of multiport cards makes serial connectivity more powerful, reliable, easier to use, and more cost effective than any other 16550-based controller available today. RocketPort 550 performance capabilities make it ideal for peripheral control applications such as data acquisition, point-of-sale, and factory-floor automation, as well as remote network access and Internet access.

The RocketPort 550 family delivers traditional RocketPort performance and reliability in a 16550 UART-based serial card, for seamless integration with your off-the-shelf or custom software programs. By utilizing a state-of-the-art serial I/O ASIC, the RocketPort 550 provides an affordable serial expansion solution that delivers the highest performance and reliability through industry-standard 16550 UART technology.
