Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8

Windows device driver information for Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8

The Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8 is manufactured by Comtrol. The device is compatible with Linux and Unix operating systems. Comtrol’s RocketPort offers a quick solution if you have more serial devices and lesser ports in your computer. The Comtrol RocketPort enables a user to add four additional ports to the 32 COM ports in the computer. The Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8 belongs to a family of multiport cards created by Comtrol. This device helps create a more reliable and powerful serial connectivity. The Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8 uses the AIOPIC chip designed by Comtrol. This is a 36Mhz Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). The device enables the transmission and reception of data at higher rates compared to other multiport cards. Its 460 kbps full duplex speed improves throughput speed and reduces load on the computer. The chip also increases reliability on the host computer system.

The Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8’s ASICs can replace other hardware components such as the bus interface logic. The integration of ASIC can reduce the number of components by about eighty percent. This can result in lesser chances for the processor to fail. The Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8 allows a maximum of 32 COM ports to be added in one slot without the use of IRQs. It has 36 MHz ASIC processors. For its best performance, the device allows one ASIC for every eight ports. The device supports PCI bus architectures. This ensures compatibility with any type of host environment. It also supports serial interfaces such as the RS-232 and RS-422. The device also has FIFOs that are 64 times larger than a 16550 UART. This maximizes speed and minimizes data loss. The Comtrol RocketPort Unity Port 8 and its driver are provided by Comtrol.
