We presently have a need to replace our legacy Acceleport xem solution in a new server running Win 2K3. The old 5.0V host adapter is not PCI-X compatable. Is there a technical reason why the 4-port Digi Neo cannot replace this configuration, since we’re only using 2 of the 8 ports anyway?
You can use any of Digi’s current PCI rs232 adapters. The Neo is fine. You could get a new AccelePort Xem host PCI adapter if you wanted to continue using the rest of your equipment the way it is. The Neo is probably the least expensive way to go.
