- Flexibility: Option for 16 to 128 ports per adapter, and up to 512 ports per system.
- Adaptability: When used with ACM/Flex-16, user can select RS-232, RS-422/485 and/or 20 mA Current Loop electrical interfaces.
- Performance: Built around a 32 MHz Intel RISC processor, with 512K RAM, 64K dual-ported RAM, and 128K FLASH EEPROM.
- User Definability: The user can software select options such as Edit, Echo, I/O Flow Control, RS-485 line control and Character Translation to be processed on the Intellicon-NT960 Host Adapter.
Intellicon/ISA NT960
More Information
The high performance Intellicon-NT960 is a RISC-based, expandable I/O subsystem rugged enough for even the most complex of application needs. In conjunction with ACM/16 and ACM/Flex-16 external modules, one Intellicon-NT960 host adapter can handle up to 128 ports. In addition, the Intellicon’s processor and dual-ported RAM substantially reduce serial I/O bottlenecks on the host CPU, ensuring enhanced performance for the total system.
