Value Proposition:
Equipment changes, operating system and hardware upgrades and the constant evolution of standards make managing an IT environment a complex and demanding task. To avoid the high costs associated with modifying application software, Perle provides a cost-effective upgrade path allowing serial device users to upgrade their PCI Serial cards to the new performance standard 3.3v PCI-X. In addition the Ultraport SI models with software selectable triple interfaces allow total flexibility, for users needing to dynamically move equipment between ports without taking the host server down.

PC/server form factors are changing as well. Vendors are providing models that have small form factors requiring low profile PCI cards based on the PCI MD1 and MD2 standards. Perle offers both standard and low profile options enabling you to maintain your existing serial peripherals and mission critical applications.
