Moxa UPort 1450-G2-T 4-Port USB-to-Serial

Overview

The Moxa UPort 1450-G2-T is a 4-port USB-to-serial converter that bridges a single USB 3.2 Gen 1 host port to four independent DB9 serial ports in a metal IP20 chassis. Four DB9 male serial ports, each software-selectable between RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 (2-wire or 4-wire) – covers every legacy and current serial standard without swapping hardware. A 512-byte per-port on-chip FIFO and full hardware/software flow control sustain clean operation at baudrates up to 921.6 kbps, and dual-power input (USB bus or external 12-48 VDC adapter) means the unit can run independently of the host USB bus budget.

Key Features

• USB 3.2 Gen 1 SuperSpeed (5 Gbps) host interface, backward-compatible to USB 1.1/2.0
• 4 x DB9 male serial ports (RS-232 / RS-422 / RS-485)
• 50 bps to 921.6 kbps including non-standard baudrates
• 512-byte on-chip FIFO per port plus RTS/CTS and XON/XOFF flow control
• Automatic Data Direction Control (ADDC) for RS-485 – no driver tinkering or direction pin wiring
• Built-in 120-ohm RS-485 terminator and selectable 1k / 150k pull resistors
• Dual-power input: USB bus power or external 12-48 VDC adapter (sold separately, AU plug kit available)
• Latching USB cable with latch and screw lock for vibration-prone installations
• Double-sided corner LEDs display power, TX, and RX from either viewing angle
• Metal chassis (IP20) with DIN-rail (DK-UP1400-G2), wall-mount, and rack kits available
• No isolation. Choose the 1450I-G2 / 1450I-G2-T variants when installations are exposed to ground-loop risk, lightning, or heavy surge activity.
• -40 to 75 deg C wide-temperature rating suits outdoor cabinets and harsh plant environments

Applications

• Workstation and server expansion – four serial ports from one USB socket
• Point-of-sale, retail, and hospitality peripheral fleets
• Industrial instrumentation and data acquisition
• Test benches driving multiple DUTs over serial
• Server-room out-of-band management for serial-only equipment
• Legacy RS-485 multidrop network revival on modern hosts
