Overview

The Moxa UPort 1610-8-G2 is an 8-port USB-to-serial converter in a metal IP20 chassis. It bridges a single USB 3.2 Gen 1 host port out to 8 independent DB9 serial ports running RS-232 at baudrates up to 921.6 kbps. Dual-power input (USB bus or external 12-48 VDC adapter) keeps the unit online independent of the host USB bus budget, and the 1600-G2 platform inherits the latching USB cable, 512-byte per-port FIFO, ADDC for RS-485, and double-sided corner LEDs from the current UPort G2 platform.

Key Features

  • 8 x DB9 male serial ports (RS-232)
  • 50 bps to 921.6 kbps baudrate
  • RTS/CTS and XON/XOFF flow control; data bits 5/6/7/8; parity None/Even/Odd/Space/Mark; stop bits 1/1.5/2
  • USB 3.2 Gen 1 SuperSpeed (5 Gbps / 480 Mbps / 12 Mbps), backward-compatible to USB 1.1/2.0
  • 512-byte on-chip FIFO per port for high-throughput sustained transfers
  • Dual-power input: USB bus power or external 12-48 VDC adapter
  • Latching USB cable design and double-sided corner LEDs for TX/RX/PWR status
  • 0 to 60 deg C standard operating temperature

Applications

  • Mid-density server-room consoles and rack-scale serial management
  • Test benches driving multiple DUTs over serial
  • Point-of-sale, kiosk, and retail peripheral fleets
  • Industrial instrumentation and data acquisition
  • Legacy RS-485 multidrop network revival on modern hosts

What’s Included

  • 1 x UPort 1610-8-G2 USB-to-serial converter
  • 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 type A-to-type B cable with latch and screw (inferred from 1400-G2 sibling)
  • 4 x rubber stand (inferred from 1400-G2 sibling)
  • 1 x quick installation guide
  • 1 x warranty card
