DuelAdapter - PCMCIA/Cardbus-to-ExpressCard AdapterDuel Systems has unveiled DuelAdapter, the industry’s first PCMCIA and Cardbus to ExpressCard adapter. The DuelAdapter allows customers who have purchased laptops with 34mm or 54mm ExpressCard ports to continue to use existing PCMCIA and Cardbus cards, the press release says.

The DuelAdapter, according to Duel Systems, provides the highest throughput speed for current PCMCIA and Cardbus cards, such as WLAN (802.11x), wireless modem cards, Panasonic P2 and most other current cards. The adapter uses a new Texas Instruments chipset to convert PCMCIA and Cardbus input to an ExpressCard compatible signal at transfer rates up to the full 2.5Gbit/sec supported by the ExpressCard interface.

This PC Card-to-ExpressCard adapter works with Windows XP and Mac OS X operating systems. The driver for Windows Vista will be available in the near future.

DuelAdapter is available for $99.00 after $20 instant off at Duel-SystemAdapters.com.
