Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors
Advantech’s ADAM-4561/4562 allows PC users to connect a serial device to a system that uses a USB interface without opening the chassis or turning off the PC. The power is derived from the USB port, so there are no power adapters to deal with. This makes the ADAM-4561/4562 especially suitable for modems, printers, POS systems and industrial control devices. Compliant with USB V1.1, ADAM-4561/4562 features several powerful functions such as high-speed 115,2 Kbps transmission and support for various operating systems including Windows 98/ME/2000 and Linux.
ADAM-4561/4562 (with plug-and-play installation) has automatic RS485 data flow control, independent RS232/422/485 ports and DC isolation protection of up to 3 kV. By simply plugging in a USB hub, ADAM-4561/4562 eliminates the configuration issues associated with high-priced, older card solutions. The user simply installs the drivers with no need to set cards slots, IRQ addresses, DMA channels, or device addresses.
