Serial Cards

Serial cards are hardware devices that can be used to add serial port connectivity (a type of connection on computers used for peripherals such as older printers and gaming controllers) to your computer or server. They offer a direct connection between your computer and any device that uses one of the serial data transmission standards such as RS232 and RS485. Most serial cards can slot into the back of your desktop.

What are serial cards used for?

Some serial cards provide connectivity to independent serial channels while others can give multiple connections. A single serial card, for example, can use a serial cable to give up to eight RS232 (DB9) serial connections. Serial cards are designed for time-sensitive and industrial applications including:

  • Court reporting
  • Automotive diagnostics
  • Security
  • Point of Sale (PoS) systems
  • Industrial automation
  • Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)
  • Factory control
