## Long description

The StarTech.com PCI Express Serial Card (11050-PC-SERIAL-CARD) adds a single RS-232 (DB9) serial port to desktop or Small Form Factor (SFF) systems via a PCIe 2.0 x1 interface. It supports 16C1050 UART, a 256-byte FIFO for transmit/receive, and bi-directional baud rates up to 921.6 Kbps. The card includes both standard and low-profile brackets, serial port LED status indicators, and is compatible with Windows and Linux systems for broad device support.
Advantages
This PCIe serial card enables continued use of legacy serial devices without replacing host systems, reducing downtime and avoiding costly upgrades. With 16C1050 UART and a 256-byte FIFO buffer it delivers reliable data flow and reduces CPU load. Inclusion of a low-profile bracket and LED status indicators simplifies installation and monitoring in SFF and standard desktop systems. Cross-platform driver support extends compatibility across Windows and Linux environments.
Suitable for
Point-of-sale (POS) terminals and cash registers
Security and access control systems
Industrial automation and manufacturing equipment
Audio/visual installations and legacy peripherals
Logistics, freight, and IT infrastructure that require serial connectivity

How to use
Power down the computer and insert the PCIe card into an available PCIe x1 slot on the motherboard. Secure the card using the appropriate bracket (standard or low-profile) depending on the chassis form factor. Reconnect power, boot the system, and install any required drivers for your operating system (Windows or Linux). Connect the RS-232 device to the DB9 port and verify communication using terminal software or your application of choice; LED indicators on the card show port activity.
Usage recommendations
For stable serial communication, use good-quality shielded serial cables and confirm matching serial parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits, and flow control) between the host and peripheral. If using in industrial environments, mount the card in a properly ventilated chassis and confirm driver compatibility with your OS version before deployment.
