Carte PCIe EXSYS 2 ports parallèles EPP/ECP avec bracket low profile, chipset ASIX (EX-46001)

This PCI Express x1 card adds two high-speed parallel ports to a desktop computer, supporting EPP/ECP modes for legacy printers, scanners, and industrial devices. It delivers reliable IEEE 1284 communication with data transfer rates up to 1.5 MB/s per port, driven by an ASIX AX99100 chipset.

Advantages

The card provides two independent DB25 female parallel ports with 256-byte FIFO buffers per port, ensuring smooth data flow even under heavy workloads. It includes a low-profile bracket for installation in slimline systems and is powered directly from the PCIe bus, eliminating external power adapters. Broad operating system support covers Windows 7/8/10/11 (32/64-bit), Windows Server, and Linux Kernel 2.6.x and later.
