Description

The StarTech.com PEX4S553 Serial Adapter Card adds four RS-232 (DB9) serial ports to a standard or small form factor computer using a single PCI Express expansion slot.

Advantages

The native single-chip PCI Express chipset delivers true PCIe performance and reduces CPU load by up to 48% compared with bridge-chip serial cards. The adapter supports a 128 Kbit/s baud rate and includes a 256-byte FIFO buffer for stable data transfer. It is compatible with common operating systems and is backed by StarTech.com’s lifetime warranty and free lifetime technical support.
