## Long description

The StarTech.com ICUSB23216FD is a 16-port USB-to-serial (RS232) adapter hub designed for industrial and rack-mounted environments. It provides a USB 2.0 Type-B host interface and 16 RS232 serial ports in a compact steel chassis, supporting daisy chaining to expand serial connectivity while retaining assigned COM port values after reconnection.
Advantages

The all-metal chassis fits standard 19-inch racks and the device supports an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), making it suitable for harsh environments. COM port retention ensures stable port assignments, and the hub includes both AC adapter and terminal-block power inputs for flexible power options.
