Introduction

The CP-168U is a smart, 8-port universal PCI board designed for POS and ATM applications. It is a top choice of industrial automation engineers

and system integrators, and supports many different operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and even UNIX. In addition, each of the board’s

eight RS-232 serial ports supports a fast 921.6 kbps baudrate. The CP-168U provides full modem control signals to ensure compatibility with a

wide range of serial peripherals, and it works with both 3.3 V and 5 V PCI buses, allowing the board to be installed in virtually any available PC

server.
