Product information

Description

The StarTech Internal USB Motherboard Header to Serial RS232 Adapter is a practical solution designed to connect a motherboard IDC USB header directly to a serial RS232 port inside a computer case. Equipped with the dependable FTDI FT232RL chipset, this 24-inch adapter enables seamless communication between modern computer systems and legacy serial peripheral devices. It provides reliable data transmission with support for a baud rate of up to 115.2 Kbit/s and a 256-byte FIFO buffer, making it well-suited for professional, industrial, and specialized hardware setups.

Advantages

This internal adapter offers a clean and organized way to integrate legacy serial connections without cluttering external ports. Because it operates completely inside the PC case and draws power directly from the USB bus, it requires no external power supply, cords, or separate adapters. The inclusion of the FTDI chipset ensures broad operating system compatibility, dependable driver support, and stable long-term performance across various Windows, Mac, and server environments.

Suitable for

  • Connecting legacy serial devices to modern desktop motherboards
  • Integrating specialized hardware in industrial environments
  • Setting up internal RS232 communication for servers and embedded systems
  • Replacing external adapters to maintain a clean workspace inside or outside the PC case

When it may not be suitable

This adapter is not designed for external USB port connections, as it specifically requires an internal motherboard IDC header. It may also not meet the needs of users requiring ultra-high-speed data transfers that exceed standard serial port limitations.

Key specifications

  • Host interface: IDC
  • Output interface: Serial RS-232
  • Chipset: FTDI FT232RL
  • Maximum baud rate: 115.2 Kbit/s
  • FIFO buffer: 256 bytes
  • Cable length: 24 inches
  • Power mode: Bus-powered

How to use

To use the adapter, first ensure that the computer system is powered off and unplugged from the main power source. Open the computer case and locate an available internal USB motherboard header. Connect the IDC connector of the adapter securely to the motherboard header. Secure the bracket or mount the adapter as appropriate within the chassis. Close the computer case, power on the system, and install the required drivers if they are not automatically installed by the operating system.

What to consider before purchase

  • Verify that your motherboard has an available internal IDC USB header.
  • Confirm that your peripheral device uses a standard RS232 serial interface.
  • Check operating system compatibility to ensure drivers are available for your specific software environment.

Usage recommendations

Ensure that the internal connections are firmly secured before powering on the system, and always install the recommended FTDI drivers for stable and reliable data communication.
