Interface Card DeLOCK 95246 Internal Parallel Serial

The DeLOCK 95246 MiniPCIe adapter expands a system with two additional serial ports and one parallel port accessible via the slot bracket. It provides internal 2 x 10-pin headers for serial and an 18-pin header for parallel on the module, and offers either a standard or low-profile slot bracket to bring connections to the exterior. The card is based on the Systembase SB16C1053 chipset, follows the MiniPCIe full-size form factor and PCI Express 2.0 interface, and supports data transfer rates up to 921.6 Kb/s compatible with 16C550 UART devices.

Advantages

This internal interface card adds legacy parallel and serial connectivity to systems with a Mini PCI Express slot, enabling connection of printers, scanners, modems and other RS-232 or parallel peripherals. The kit includes pin headers on the module and a choice of standard or low-profile slot brackets, allowing flexible installation in different chassis. The supported baud rate and 16C550 UART compatibility ensure reliable communication with a wide range of devices.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the DeLOCK 95246 card into an available Mini PCI Express full-size slot on the host system according to the system manual and secure the chosen slot bracket (standard or low-profile) to the chassis. Route the internal header cables from the module to the bracket connectors if required, then fasten the screw nuts on external cables (DB9 or parallel) to ensure a secure connection. After hardware installation, boot the system and install any necessary drivers so the operating system recognises the serial and parallel ports.

Recommendations

Ensure the host system supports Mini PCIe full-size cards and that drivers for the SB16C1053 chipset or generic 16C550-compatible UART drivers are available for your operating system. Use shielded cabling for long serial runs and secure DB9 connectors with the supplied screw nuts to prevent accidental disconnection.
