This is a 6-port RS-232 PCI card designed for expanding serial communication capabilities on a computer. It uses a fan-out cable design to provide multiple serial ports through a single PCI slot. The card is ideal for users who need to connect multiple serial devices, such as industrial equipment, modems, or legacy peripherals. It is commonly used in environments where older hardware still requires serial connections, such as in manufacturing or telecommunications.
The card features the Netmos MCS9865 chipset, which ensures reliable performance and compatibility with various serial communication standards. It supports 5 to 9-bit serial formats, making it versatile for different data transmission needs. The built-in 16C550 compatible UARTs enhance data transfer efficiency and reliability. The card automatically selects the IRQ and I/O address, reducing the need for manual configuration and making installation easier.
This PCI card supports the 32-bit PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.3, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of motherboards. It also supports PCI Power Management, which helps reduce power consumption when the card is not in use. The PCI IRQ Sharing Feature allows multiple devices to share the same interrupt request line, saving system resources and enabling smoother operation with other add-on cards.
The design of the card is compact and built for durability, making it suitable for both desktop and server environments. It includes all necessary components for installation and operation, requiring only a free PCI slot and proper driver installation. Users should ensure their system has the latest drivers and firmware to fully utilize the card's capabilities.
