Add-On Serial Adapters
TAL now offers USB, PCI and ISA - 2, 4 and 8 port add-on serial port
boards. Use these boards with TAL's WinWedge products to communicate over
multiple serial ports simultaneously.
RS-232 Serial Adapters with USB Connection
Benefits
- Easily adds additional high speed serial ports
(2, 4 or 8 additional ports).
- Supports up to 115.2K Baud
- Connects via the PCs USB port making installation trivially easy.
Key Features
- Fully Plug and Play
- Installs in minutes without removing the cover on your PC
- Does not use any additional Interrupt Request lines.
- Drivers Disk for Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP
System Requirements
Our USB serial adapters will work with any Windows PC with an available
USB port.
RS-232 PCI Boards
Quattro PCI - 4 port Benefits
- Offers four 16550 UART serial ports on a single PCI card. Ideal for
point-of-sale (POS) system applications, the Quattro-PCI adds four additional
COM ports to any PCI equipped PC.
- Supports up to 115.2K Baud
- Allows IRQ sharing and automatically selects the next available IRQ
and COM addresses PCI Bus 4-Port
- Makes it possible to connect a bar-code scanner, credit card reader,
cash drawer, and receipt printer to a single card using a single IRQ.

Key Features
- Easy Plug & Play installation - automatically configures I/O addresses
& IRQs.
- Fully compliant with PCI Specification 2.1.
- Includes "Lava Com Port Redirect" Utility for renaming COM
ports - allows for backward compatibility with software that supports
COM 1-4 only.
- All four ports share one PCI bus IRQ - even when accessed simultaneously,
saving valuable resources for other expansion cards
- Lifetime Warranty
Octopus 550 - 8 port Benefits
- There is always a need for a reliable multi-port serial adapter. The
Octopus-550 is an extremely dependable communication solutions for a
wide variety of applications. The Octopus-550 is ideal for ISPs or any
type of RAS system that does not deal with an overwhelming amount of
traffic.
- PCI bus 8-port serial board with a fan-out (octopus) cable - allows
user to configure 8 COM ports on the faster PCI bus, at data rates up
to 115.2k bps.
- All eight ports share one PCI bus IRQ - even when accessed simultaneously,
saving valuable resources for other expansion cards.
- Ideal for Remote Access Services (RAS).

Key Features
- Easy Plug & Play installation - automatically configures I/O addresses
& IRQs.
- Each port includes integrated 16-byte FIFO buffer with software configurable
Tx/Rx triggers.
- Carries the standard pin-out for serial ports. The first four of the
serial ports have all of the standard serial signals. The last four
of the eight serial ports do not include the Ring Indicator (RI) input.
- Fully compliant with PCI Specification 2.1.
- Lifetime Warranty
System Requirements
Our PCI serial adapters will work with any Windows PC with an available
PCI Slot.
RS-232 ISA Boards
Benefits
- Adds high speed, high IRQ serial ports
(2 or 4 additional ports).
- Supports up to 115.2K Baud
- Extended IRQ selection frees regular IRQ levels (IRQ9 and below) for
other interface cards.

Key Features
- Two or Four 16550 UART serial ports (one 9 pin and one 25 pin in the
2 port board) to support high-speed modems and other serial devices.
- Each serial port can be individually configured as com1 to com12 (i.e.
one of 12 different port base addresses can be selected for each individual
port).
- Each port supports interrupts IRQ3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, & 15 for
maximum flexibility.
- Microsoft Windows, Windows 95 and NT fully support Hi-IRQ configurations.
- Use jumpers to individually configure ports.
- Easy to use directions and users manual.
- 5 year warranty.
System Requirements
One available 16-bit industry standard ISA expansion slot in an AT-compatible
computer. The two port board will work fine with all operating systems
as they all support 4 serial ports. The 4 port board will work best with
Windows 95, NT and DOS as they support more than 4 serial ports. If you
wish to use the 4 port board with Windows 3.x you will need to purchase
a third party COM driver software to support above com 4 (i.e. HiCom/9
from Cherry Hill Software).
