It offers a convenient solution for connecting modern or legacy equipment to newer computer systems that don't have RS232 ports. The serial card is compliant with PCI Express 1.0a specification, and it's compatible with 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x PCI Express slots.The 2-port PCIe serial card is ideal for system upgrades in a wide range of applications including manufacturing equipment, POS equipment, security devices such as surveillance cameras, card readers or access panels, and environment or building control systems.High-performance serial communicationThe PCIe serial card delivers high-performance serial communication, with support for data transfer rates of up to 460Kbps. The serial card provides CPU load decrease which helps ensure optimal system performance and prevent errors such as overruns by preserving resources. In addition, the dual-channel UART ensures smooth performance, even while both ports are in use.Easy installationThe serial card is easy to install and configure, with support for a broad range of Windows® operating systems. Plus, the card features IRQ sharing and supports plug-and-play serial device connections, guaranteeing convenient, hassle-free installation. It comes with a standard-profile bracket installed, and also includes an optional low-profile bracket.The PEX2S1050 is backed by a 2-year lifetime warranty and free lifetime technical support.Specifications Ports & interfaces Internal Yes Output interface Serial Serial interface type RS-232 Serial ports quantity 2 Host interface PCIe Expansion card form factor Full-height / Low-profile Technical details Chipset SystemBase - SB16C1052PCI FIFO (First In, First Out) 256 B Full duplex Yes Compliance certificates RoHS Performance Data bits 5, 6, 7, 8 Baud rate 460.8 Kbit/s Chipset SystemBase - SB16C1052PCI FIFO (First In, First Out) 256 B Full duplex Yes Flow control support Yes Harmonized System (HS) code 84733020 Certificates Certification CE, FCC, Microsoft WHQL Design Internal Yes Certification CE, FCC, Microsoft WHQL Features Data bits 5, 6, 7, 8 Baud rate 460.8 Kbit/s Chipset SystemBase - SB16C1052PCI FIFO (First In, First Out) 256 B Full duplex Yes Flow control support Yes Harmonized System (HS) code 84733020 Operational conditions Operating temperature (T-T) -10 - 80 °C Storage temperature (T-T) -20 - 100 °C Operating relative humidity (H-H) 5 - 85% System requirements Windows operating systems supported Windows 10, Windows 10 Education, Windows 10 Education x64, Windows 10 Enterprise, Windows 10 Enterprise x64, Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Home x64, Windows 10 Pro, Windows 10 Pro x64, Windows 7 Enterprise, Windows 7 Enterprise x64, Windows 7 Home Basic, Windows 7 Home Basic x64, Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Home Premium x64, Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Professional x64, Windows 7 Starter, Windows 7 Starter x64, Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Windows 8, Windows 8 Enterprise, Windows 8 Enterprise x64, Windows 8 Pro, Windows 8 Pro x64, Windows 8 x64, Windows 8.1, Windows 8.1 Enterprise, Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64, Windows 8.1 Pro, Windows 8.1 Pro x64, Windows 8.1 x64, Windows 95, Windows 98SE, Windows ME, Windows Vista Business, Windows Vista Business x64, Windows Vista Enterprise, Windows Vista Enterprise x64, Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Home Basic x64, Windows Vista Home Premium, Windows Vista Home Premium x64, Windows Vista Ultimate, Windows Vista Ultimate x64, Windows XP Home, Windows XP Home x64, Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Professional x64 Server operating systems supported Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019 Weight & dimensions Width 4.72" (120 mm) Depth 4.06" (103 mm) Height 0.787" (20 mm) Weight 2.15 oz (61 g) Package width 5.59" (142 mm) Package depth 6.69" (170 mm) Package height 1.18" (30 mm) Package weight 5.26 oz (149 g) Packaging data Mounting brackets included Yes Drivers included Yes Package width 5.59" (142 mm) Package depth 6.69" (170 mm) Package height 1.18" (30 mm) Package weight 5.26 oz (149 g) Quick installation guide Yes Logistics data Products per master (outer) case 75 pc(s) Master (outer) case width 14" (356 mm) Master (outer) case length 26.9" (682 mm) Master (outer) case height 12.6" (320 mm) Harmonized System (HS) code 84733020 Packaging content Mounting brackets included Yes Drivers included Yes Quick installation guide Yes Other features Chipset SystemBase - SB16C1052PCI Flow control support Yes
