InLine 33208F Internal Serial Bracket with 2x 9-pin Male Ports to 10-pin Female Header in Stainless Steel

The InLine 33208F internal serial bracket with 2x 9-pin male ports to 10-pin female header in stainless steel is designed to expand computer connectivity by providing two 9-pin male serial ports connected via a 10-pin female header. Built with a durable stainless steel slot plate, this internal adapter is ideal for connecting legacy serial devices such as industrial equipment, older peripherals, or specialized control systems directly to a computer motherboard. It routes two internal serial ports of your mainboard to the outside and provides them as 9-pin D-Sub male connectors, helping to maintain efficient system setups in professional and legacy environments.

Advantages

This serial slot bracket offers a reliable way to retrofit two serial interfaces on a PC case using high-quality stainless steel materials for enhanced durability. The straightforward 1:1 pin assignment simplifies correct mapping and helps avoid miswiring during installation. With a compact cable length of approximately 18 cm, it ensures tidy cable routing inside the computer case, saving valuable space and preventing clutter. The dual configuration allows you to connect multiple serial devices simultaneously through the rear of the PC.

Suitable for

• Connecting industrial equipment and legacy serial peripherals to a computer
• Expanding computer connectivity with two external 9-pin D-Sub male ports
• Retrofitting serial interfaces on standard PC cases
• Maintaining existing infrastructures in companies and public institutions

This component may not be suitable for modern setups that completely lack internal motherboard serial headers or for users who exclusively rely on USB and network-based peripherals without any requirement for legacy D-Sub connections.

Key specifications

• Dual 9-pin D-Sub male ports on the slot bracket
• Two 10-pin female headers for direct mainboard connection
• Cable length of approximately 18 cm
• 1:1 pin configuration with pin 10 unconfigured
• Stainless steel slot plate material
• Dimensions of 21 mm width, 120 mm depth, and 35 mm height

To use this product, mount the stainless steel slot bracket into an available expansion slot on the back of your computer case. Carefully route the attached cable to your motherboard and plug the 10-pin female connectors directly into the corresponding internal serial headers, ensuring proper alignment according to the 1:1 pinout specifications. Once secured, you can connect your external 9-pin serial peripherals directly to the rear ports of the bracket.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your motherboard has available 10-pin internal serial headers
• Check the physical dimensions and available expansion slot space in your PC case
• Confirm the pinout compatibility with your specific legacy serial devices

Usage recommendations: Ensure the computer is powered off and unplugged before opening the case and installing internal components. Handle the cable carefully and secure excess length to maintain proper airflow inside the chassis.
