Low-profile Plug-in
Card - PCI Express - PC, Mac, Linux - 2 x Number of Serial Ports External
The PEX2S553 PCI Express serial card lets you turn a PCI
Express slot into 2 RS232 (DB9) serial ports. Based on a native single chip
design (no bridge chip), this 2-port serial adapter card allows you to harness
the full capability offered by PCI Express (PCIe), and reducing the load
applied to the CPU by as much as 48% over conventional serial cards.
The RS232 Serial Adapter Card (PEX2S553) is compatible with
a broad range of operating systems including Windows® and Linux
Kernel 2.6.11 to 4.11.x, and MAC OS 10.4 and above.
Plus, the serial card includes an optional half-height/low
profile bracket that allows the card to be installed in any PCI Express slot,
regardless of the size of the computer case.
