Connect Tech Adds Optical Isolation to Protect Your PCI Express Applications

Guelph, Ontario - December  2007

Connect Tech’s established BlueStorm/Express family now offers three optically isolated options to further protect your PCI Express applications. 

As the demand for increased communications performance continues to rise, Connect Tech maintains a steady pace to satisfy the needs of customers. 

“According to our customers, optical isolation has become a critical feature for serial communications, especially within harsh environments.  Based on this feedback, we have made optical isolation a standard model option for PCI Express, as well as, many of our other products,” Michele Kasza, VP Sales.  

Since product customization is such an integral portion of Connect Tech’s business, CTI provides standard, as well as, unique optically isolated model options for PCI Express.  Currently, Connect Tech’s BlueStorm/Express product family offers the following PCI Express solutions:

BlueStorm/Express - a standard PCI Express serial communications solution
BlueStorm/Express Opto – a PCI Express serial communications card featuring 3kV optical isolation
BlueStorm/Express LP Opto – a low profile PCI Express solution featuring 3 kV optical isolation
BlueStorm/Express Opto (1kV) – a unique PCI Express card offering 1kV optical isolation on four of eight ports and surge suppression on the remaining four ports

Connect Tech understands the need for high performance and dependable products. Consequently, BlueStorm/Express cards also include multi-strike surge suppression for added protection from any disruptions that may occur within the operating environment. Available in 2, 4, 8 or 16 ports, CTI’s BlueStorm/Express cards provide reliable, high speed data transfer for PCI Express systems.  Ports are designed to be hardware configurable for either RS-232/422/485 in single port increments.  BlueStorm/Express cards are compatible with x1, x4, x8 and x16 lane, PCI Express slots.  With the added protection of optical isolation and baud rates up to 921.6Kbps (RS-232) and 1.8432 Mbps (RS-422/485), BlueStorm/Express ensures the best possible performance for your serial communications.

With its constant innovation, Connect Tech continues to lead the field in PCI Express serial communication cards.  Superior data transfer speeds, high port densities, surge suppression and optical isolation options ensure that BlueStorm/Express products will continue to be the best choice for your critical applications.  All BlueStorm/Express products include lifetime warranty and free technical support.
