Once upon a time, your computer had one parallel port, and one printer, and the world was happy. Now, you'd like to get a scanner, or an external Zip drive, or other parallel port peripherals, but you don't want to bump your good old parallel port printer out of its long-time home. Can't you just somehow add more parallel ports to your computer? Yes, you can, with SIIG's CyberParallel Dual PCI card. This controller card adds not one, but two new DB25 parallel ports to your system, allowing you to upgrade with those new peripherals to your heart's content. Using the fast PCI bus, the CyberParallel Dual takes extra load off of your processor, and offers the very fastest data transfer achievable for parallel ports. Many different modes are supported, including ECP, EPP, BPP and SPP, so compatibility with almost any parallel peripheral shouldn't be a problem. After talking it over with their good old faithful printers, a lot of shoppers decided to get the CyberParallel Dual PCI card and make space for some fun new peripherals. And the world was happy once again.
