Gray 9 Pin Serial Male to 10 Pin Motherboard Header Slot Plate - PLATE9M16 from StarTech.com

This adapter allows you to add an extra serial port to the back of your PC by connecting to the motherboard's internal header. It is ideal for users who need to connect legacy serial devices or peripherals that require a traditional COM port. The adapter is designed for easy installation and provides a reliable connection for serial communication tasks.

The PLATE9M16 features a DB9 male connector on one end and an IDC10 connector on the other. This makes it compatible with standard serial devices and motherboard headers that use a 10-pin configuration. The high-quality construction ensures that the adapter can withstand regular use without compromising performance or connectivity.

This adapter is suitable for desktop PCs with a motherboard that has a 10-pin header for serial ports. It is not compatible with laptops or motherboards that do not support this type of connection. Users should check their motherboard's specifications to confirm compatibility before purchasing.

Installation involves connecting the IDC10 end to the motherboard's header and securing the DB9 connector on the back panel of the PC case. No additional software or drivers are required, as it is a hardware-only solution. The gray color helps it blend with most PC cases and internal components.
