  • Specification

The 5102 ACB-MP.PCI is a low-profile PCI adapter that enables synchronous serial communication for industrial and secure environments. It delivers reliable one-port connectivity with support for multiple protocols including HDLC/SDLC, making it suitable for military communication, digital data service (DDS), secure banking systems, and custom legacy applications.

With compatibility across RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, RS-530, and RS-530A interfaces, this card ensures flexible deployment across both modern and legacy infrastructure. It supports up to 128Kbps transfer speeds and works in PCI slots that support either 3.3V or 5V signaling. This model is low-profile (MD1) and should be used in small form-factor systems; for standard height systems, use model 5102S.

Included SeaMAC driver software provides native protocol support, while the developer toolkit simplifies the creation of custom drivers across other platforms. The adapter is built for demanding industrial applications with long-term reliability.
