Description
“EXPRECIUM” is a full format PC-based twin-line alarm
receiver card.
EXPRECIUM connects to PCI bus of a PC Computer. Its
small size fits table top IBM PCs or compatible PC Pentium
and up. EXPRECIUM interfaces to two telephone lines,
imposing no limit to the number of customers per line. It
