The StarTech.com PEX4S953LP is a PCIe expansion card that adds four RS232 DB9 serial ports, making it suitable for IT teams and system integrators connecting serial equipment such as printers, modems, card readers, or PIN pads to a Windows or Linux computer with an available PCIe slot.

Recommended For

  • Desktop or server operators connecting several RS-232 devices at once—such as POS peripherals, scanners, or card readers—who want four DB9 ports from one PCIe slot.
  • Factory and automation technicians adding serial connections to a desktop or server used with RS-232 PLCs or control equipment.
  • CNC or machine-tool operators whose existing equipment communicates over RS-232 and whose control PC has an available PCIe slot; community discussions note that some legacy setups can be sensitive to the serial adapter and connection details.
  • Lab or measurement-system users connecting RS-232 instruments, such as sensors or oscilloscopes, to a fixed desktop or server and needing multiple serial ports.
