Introduction The PCI4S954PW 4-Port PCI Serial Card (with Power Output) turns a PCI slot into 4 RS232 (DB9) serial connections and enables compatible devices to draw power from the serial ports. Suitable for many RS232-powered serial applications, this PCI serial card offers a selectable 5V or 12V power option capable of power output using pin 1, 4, 8 or 9, allowing you to configure the card to suit the requirements of your powered RS232 devices.
Installation WARNING! PCI cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case or touching your PCI card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.
