StarTech 16 port USB to RS232 Adapter - ICUSB23216FD StarTechs USB to RS232 hub features 16 additional ports for industrial environments via a single USB port. Its a reliable and cost-effective way to expand on RS232 ports, while retaining full control from your computer. A great benefit from this serial hub is that it enables daisy chaining. This means you can easily scale up by connecting a second hub with the original, should you need to expand on ports as you grow. All without investing in a higher cost serial adapter.Because you have full control of your serial devices through a single computer, you can monitor a multitude of external appliances, such as: security cameras and systems, industrial automation, self-serve automatic kiosks.COM port retention also features in this adapter, allowing users to plug or unplug the single USB cable into different ports, or even after a reboot, and ensures the same settings and values are restored automatically to each specific RS-232 connection.The 16 port RS-232 hub uses an FTDI USB-to-serial chipset, which enables easy installation of the hub on different OSs. The chipset tells your computer whats connecting to it in order to load the correct driver. The computer can then use the serial adapter and manage data transactions correctly over the connected cable.This serial hub is enclosed in a black all-metal chassis, designed to withstand the tough industrial environments. It is rack-mountable and fits into a standard 19-inch server storage rack. In addition, the operating temperature of the hub extends to -40-85 degrees C (-40 to 185F), making its reliable performance in no doubt for the harsh environments. There are a few ways you can power the device so you can select what is best. It comes with an AC adapter and terminal power block.StarTechs serial adapter hub is backed by a 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
