The MPEX4S952 4-Port RS232 Mini PCI Express Serial Card (16650 UART) turns a mini-PCIe slot into four RS232 (DB9) serial ports with data rates up to 921.6 Kbps - a cost-saving solution for adding serial support to embedded systems missing the functionality.

A native PCIe single-chip design enables you to take advantage of full PCI Express bus capability, by providing improved speed and reliability while reducing the load applied to the CPU by as much as 48% over conventional "bridge chip" serial cards .

Ports & interfaces
Host interface Interface that enables a host controller to communicate with a driver. Mini PCI Express
Output interface The socket (port) where the output connectors are connected. Serial
Serial ports quantity The number of serial ports in a computer or peripheral. A serial port is a serial communication physical interface through which information transfers in or out one bit at a time. The term "serial port" usually identifies hardware more or less compliant to the RS-232 standard, intended to interface with a modem or with a similar communication device. In modern computers and peripherals, serial ports have largely been replaced by USBs and other interfaces. 4

Features
Chipset Set of electronic components in an integrated circuit that manages the data flow between the processor, memory and peripherals. It is usually found in the motherboard of a computer. Chipsets are usually designed to work with a specific family of microprocessors. Because it controls communications between the processor and external devices, the chipset plays a crucial role in determining system performance. MosChip MCS9904CV-AA
