Introduction
Overview
The OMG-ULTRA-SIO provides the PC with two additional ground isolated RS-
422/485 (P/N 3189) or two non-isolated RS-422/485 (P/N 3089) serial ports for
terminals, modems, printers, etc. Isolation is important in installations where the
equipment being connected to the PC is either far from the PC, or on a different
power transformer circuit. Ground loop current is a commonly neglected and
misunderstood phenomenon that leads to data loss and t he possible destruction
of communications interfaces. The isolated OMG-ULTRA-SIO provides up to
500 volts DC of isolation.
