The SeaLINK® 2161 16-port USB to serial adapter offers an easy way to connect multiple serial devices via a single USB port.
Sealevel's SeaCOM USB software drivers and utilities make installation and operation easy using Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems. After installing the software, the serial ports on the 2161 appear as standard COM ports to the host system enabling compatibility with legacy software.
The 1U rackmount-compatible system uses a state machine architecture that greatly reduces the host computer's overhead when communicating over multiple ports simultaneously. Data rates up to 115.2K bps are supported. Two convenient USB 1.1 downstream connections are also provided to allow daisy chaining SeaLINK devices or interfacing standard USB peripherals.
