This is a 4-port PCI serial adapter card designed for connecting multiple RS-232 serial devices to a computer. It is ideal for users who need to interface with legacy equipment such as industrial machinery, laboratory instruments, or older peripherals that rely on serial communication. The card uses a PCIe interface, ensuring compatibility with modern motherboards that support this standard. It provides four DB9 ports, allowing simultaneous connections to multiple serial devices without the need for external hubs or switches.
The card is manufactured by SIIG Inc., a well-known brand in the field of computer peripherals and connectivity solutions. It supports the RS-232 standard, which is widely used for point-to-point communication between devices. The PCIe interface ensures reliable and fast data transfer, making it suitable for applications that require consistent performance. The card is designed for desktop computers with available PCI expansion slots, and it does not require any additional power sources beyond what the motherboard provides.
Installation involves inserting the card into an available PCI slot on the motherboard and securing it with a screw. No drivers are typically required as the card is plug-and-play compatible with most operating systems. Users should ensure that their system has a free PCI slot and that the motherboard supports PCIe standards. The card is often used in environments where multiple serial devices need to be connected simultaneously, such as in industrial automation or data acquisition systems.
The card includes all necessary components for installation, such as the adapter itself and any required mounting hardware. However, users may need to purchase additional DB9 cables or adapters depending on their specific devices. It is important to note that this card is not compatible with laptops or systems that lack a PCI expansion slot. Additionally, it does not support newer serial standards like USB-C or Thunderbolt, so it is best suited for legacy systems and applications.
