The boards are compatible with all popular operating systems, and each
board supports data rates of up to 921.6Kbps and provides full modem
control signals, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of serial
peripherals. In addition, the CP-102E and CP-102EL’s PCI Express
“×1” classification allows the boards to be installed in any available
PCI Express slot (including ×1, ×2, ×4, ×8, ×16, and ×32).
