Two New Multi-in-1 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Memory Card Reader/Writers

Synchrotech introduces the RC530 and RC531 Multi-in-1 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Memory Card Reader/Writers.

Each model harnesses the capabilities of SuperSpeed USB 3.0 and matches them to a versatile memory card reader. These multi-in-1 SuperSpeed USB memory card reader/writers support over 50 types of flash memory media cards. While broad card support are their hallmark, the readers are plenty fast enough to support transfer hungry memory cards like speedy UDMA 6 CompactFlash cards used in high end DLSR cameras. Utilizing SuperSpeed USB's maximum theoretical speeds of up to 5Gbps, waiting for photos and videos to transfer off cards is now a thing of the past. These SuperSpeed USB 3.0 flash memory readers also supports the massive capacities of modern storage devices, currently supporting up to 2TB on some flash media cards such as SDXC.

They don't trade practicality away for their high end features though. These memory card reader/writers are fully backward compatible with both USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 hosts. Their five open memory card slots can be used at the same time for data transfers and exchanges, even between cards. The readers support Hot-Swap and Plug-N-Play, and utilize USB bus power so no additional power source is required. The multi-platform readers are best used with systems that support SuperSpeed USB 3.0 in order to take advantage of their speed.

FarSync T4E+ Additional Features

FarSite's T4E+ card differs from their standard T4E card in the following ways:

Manchester encoding is supporting up to 10 MBits/s where the clock for the data is taken from the incoming data line. This means separate clock lines are not required. Manchester encoding is a soft configurable alternative to NRZ.

Line termination is supported on all the balanced pair signals for X.21 (V.11), V.35, RS530 (EIA530, RS422) and RS449 (RS422 signalling) operation. The line termination resistors may be soft selected to be selected or deselected on a port by port basis. The addition of line termination resistors can be helpful in improving signal quality on long high speed lines.
