Tecline Exertis Connect Serial/Parallel Slot Bracket with DB-9 Female Port 10009B

This Tecline Exertis Connect slot bracket adds a standard RS-232 serial port to any desktop PC with a free 10-pin IDC header on the motherboard. It is a simple, reliable way to connect legacy serial devices without replacing the entire system.

• Adds one external DB-9 female serial port
• Connects internally via a 10-pin IDC header (2x5 pin)
• 25 cm ribbon cable for flexible routing inside the case
• Standard PCI/PCIe slot bracket for secure mounting

In daily use

The bracket occupies a single expansion slot on the rear of the PC. The internal ribbon cable connects to the motherboard's serial port header, and the DB-9 connector is then available for external devices such as modems, industrial equipment, or point-of-sale peripherals. No drivers are required; the port appears as a standard COM port in the operating system.
