== RS232 Peripherals for the CPC ==
=== Standard Interfaces ===
 
Interfaces using same chipset and I/O ports as Amstrad's official serial interface:
* [[Amstrad Serial Interface]] ([[Amstrad]])
* [[Panda Electronics Communications Interface Unit]] (dual RS232 plus 8bit printer port) (Panda Electronics Ltd)
* [[SCA CPC Prolink]] (single RS232 port) ([[SCA]])
* [[Spectre Comms Serial Interface]] with Cage Comms software ([[Spectre Communications]])
* [[Vortex Disc Drives]] (disc drive/interface with optional RS232 port) ([[Vortex Computersysteme]])
 
=== Non-Standard Interfaces ===
 
Interfaces that use other chipset or other I/O ports as than Amstrad's official interface - these interfaces aren't compatible with the standard Amstrad interface (nor are they compatible with each other):
* [[Albireo]] (serial port interface with USB device converter built-in, for link with another computer)
* [[Aleste 520EX]] (a CPC clone with built-in RS232, intended for serial mouse)
* [[AMSSIO]] (RS232 interface) (DIY)
* [[Amstrad Serial InterfaceCirkit serial interface]]([[Cirkit]])* [[Cirkit serial interfaceCPC Booster|CPC Booster/CPC Booster+]](modern multifunction expansion, including RS232)
* [[CPCI RS232 Interface]] (DIY)
* [[KDS Electronics Serial Interface|KDS Serial Interface]]([[KDS Electronics]])* [[RS-232 para Amstrad]] ([[MHT Ingenieros]])* [[Schneider RS232 Interface]] ([[Schneider]])* [[Schneiderware V/24 Interface]] (DIY) ([[CPC Schneider International]])* [[Simple RS232 for Printer usage]] (DIY) (one-directional, transmit only)* [[Z80-SIO dual ports RS232 interface for CPC (French)]] (DIY) === Unidentified Interfaces === Interfaces where I/O ports and/or chipset are unknown:* Cirkit twin-port serial interface (resold by [[Microstyle]])* [[Data Media Disc System]] (disc drive with built-in RS232 interface) ([[Data Media]])* [[Dual RS232]] ([[Timatic Systems]])* [[Unknown RS232 Interfaces]]* http://cpcrulez.fr/hardware_dossier-communiquer_avec_son_AMSTRAD_CPC_CA.htm - lists some further serial interfaces
