Foreign Interface Kit for Xerox 8100 series
The Xerox 097S05140 Foreign Interface Kit is an accessory designed for B8100 Series Multifunction Printers and C8100 Series Colour Multifunction Printers. It enables specific connectivity required by certain models including the C8130/H, C8130/H2, C8130/T, C8130/T2, C8135/H and C8135/H2. This new supply item supports integration into existing workflows.
Enables specialised connectivity for listed models
Installing this kit adds the foreign interface capability that the specified C8130 and C8135 variants require for particular network or host connections. Without it, those printers cannot establish the specialised link needed for certain enterprise or legacy environments. The accessory activates the port and protocol support native to the hardware.
Slot-mounted module for supported multifunction
The unit installs internally into the compatible B8100 and C8100 series chassis, using the dedicated expansion slot provided on those platforms. Its form factor matches the manufacturer's specification for the listed models, ensuring a secure fit without modification. Once seated, the connectors align with the rear panel cutout for immediate cable attachment.

Questions about this item
When does the 097S05140 Foreign Interface Kit need to be replaced on a B8100 or C8100 series MFP?
The kit is a non-consumable accessory; it stays in the machine unless a firmware update or hardware change requires a new interface module.
What limits continuous scanning throughput when the Foreign Interface Kit is installed on a C8130/H2 or C8135/H?
Throughput is governed by the MFP’s own scan engine and document feeder, not by the interface kit itself.
Does the 097S05140 add noticeable fan noise or power draw when the C8130/T2 runs all day?
The kit has no moving parts and draws negligible power, so it does not increase noise or heat during extended operation.
