Introduction
Overview
The Sealevel’s SeaLINK® 2228 is a dual-port embedded USB to multi-interface serial adapter intended for
mounting directly to a computer chassis, eliminating the need for an external converter, and providing a
clean, professional installation. All configuration and electrical interface selections are handled through the
driver, so you never need to open the enclosure to set jumpers or switches. Each serial port is individually
software configurable for RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 with the electrical interface settings maintained
locally, allowing the host computer to be repaired or upgraded without reconfiguring the serial ports.
Sealevel SeaCOM USB software drivers and utilities make installation and operation easy for Windows
98SE, ME, 2000, XP, and Vista operating systems. Once the software is installed, plug the 2228 into an
available USB port and each port is recognized as a standard COM port by the host system enabling
compatibility with legacy software. Serial data rates to 921.6K bps are supported.
The 2228 includes a standard sized PC bracket and ships with an internal USB cable (Item# CA260) that is
compatible with many EBX and larger sized motherboards with 0.1" USB header connectors. For EPIC and
smaller sized motherboards, an internal USB cable with a 2mm header connector (Item# CA383) is
available as an option. Standard operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C and extended temperature
range (-40°C to 85°C) is optional.
Features
•Each port is individually software configurable for RS-232, RS-422, and two-wire or four-
wire RS-485
•High speed UART with 128-byte Tx FIFO and 384-byte Rx FIFO
•Automatic hardware RS-485 enable/disable
•Two DB9M connectors –each serial port supports data rates to 921.6K bps
•Powered by USB host connection
•Full modem control signals implemented in RS-232 mode
•Includes 14” internal USB header cable (Item# CA260)
