RocketPort Multiport Serial Cards : RS-232, RS-422 & RS-485 Enabled Serial Cards & Serial Port Adapters

Comtrol is the leader in quality multiport serial cards. As the original manufacturers of the RocketPort multiport serial card, we continually expand our full line of serial port expansion solutions including universal PCI, PCI, PCI-X, and PCI Express (PCIe) serial connectivity. RocketPort multiport serial cards come in 2 ports up to 32 port models with a variety of interfaces, cables, and rackmount (boardmount) options. Our newest lines of RocketPort Express PCIe and RocketPort INFINITY serial expansion cards are certified designed for Microsoft VISTA and XP. Our multiport serial cards - RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 compatible cards - feature quick and easy set-up and offer many configuration choices...

At Comtrol, there is always a directly matched solution for any serial port expansion or networking need.

Looking to buy new or replace existing PCI cards?

Comtrol is pleased to offer the new RocketPort INFINITY PCI/PCI-X and RocketPort EXPRESS PCIe multiport serial boards as low-cost replacement products for Universal PCI products. The new cards have increased functionality and support PCI, uPCI, PCI-X and PCIe BUS structures. RocketPort uPCI cards will be available until December 31, 2008.  Our technical sales team can help you find the equivalent serial port product for your replacement needs.
