PCIe x1 RS232 serial card

The Syba SD-PEX15022 adds two DB9 serial ports through a single PCI Express x1 slot using the MOSCHIP 9901 controller. It is fully compliant with PCI-Express Base Specification Revision 1.0a and provides up to 2.5Gbps bus throughput. Each port supports transfer rates up to 250Kbps with 256-byte transmit FIFO and 16C550 UART compatibility. A low-profile bracket is included for slim chassis installations.

Legacy Windows OS support

This card suits technicians maintaining industrial equipment, point-of-sale systems or older laboratory instruments that require native RS232 connections on supported legacy Windows platforms. It is not suited for builders needing serial ports on Windows 7 or later, or for systems lacking a free PCIe x1 slot.

Two DB9 ports with low-profile option

The deciding specification is the pair of DB9 RS232 ports delivered from one PCIe x1 lane with an included low-profile bracket. If your application requires exactly two serial ports and can use the listed legacy Windows drivers, this card fits; otherwise, a different port count or modern OS support is needed.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Syba SD-PEX15022 in a low-profile chassis, and what step is often missed?

Fit the card into a PCIe x1 slot, then swap the full-height bracket for the included low-profile bracket; the step often missed is securing the bracket screw before tightening the card retention screw.

What maintenance or replacement will the Syba SD-PEX15022 need over time?

The card has no moving parts or user-serviceable components; if the MOSCHIP 9901 controller or the 256-byte FIFO buffers fail, the entire card must be replaced.

What throughput limit appears first on the Syba SD-PEX15022 during sustained transfers?

Each serial port caps at 250Kbps, so the RS-232 line rate is the first bottleneck, well below the PCIe 1.0a x1 link's 2.5Gbps capacity.
