Four RS-232 ports on PCIe x1
This Syba SI-PEX15042 card adds four serial ports through a single PCIe 2.0 x1 slot using the Exar XR17V358 chipset. It targets industrial users, POS integrators and anyone connecting legacy modems, mice or machinery that still rely on RS-232 signalling. The board fits full-height and low-profile chassis thanks to the included bracket.
Verify slot and OS support first
Confirm the motherboard has a free PCIe x1, x2, x4, x8 or x16 slot with the correct keying for a 2.5 Gbps Gen 1 link. Driver availability covers Windows 8, 7, XP, Vista, Server 2003, 2008, 2012 and Linux kernels 2.6.27, 2.6.31, 2.6.32 and 3.x or newer. The octopus cable and four adapters use DB-9 connectors, so check your peripheral cables match.
Sustained throughput at 2.5 Gbps per direction
The dual-simplex PCIe link delivers 2.5 Gbps each way continuously, so all four ports can transmit and receive together without bus saturation. The XR17V358 is compatible with the 16C550 UART standard, providing deterministic latency for industrial automation and data-logging tasks that run for hours rather than seconds.

Questions about this item
What cables and brackets come with the Syba SI-PEX15042 and what must be purchased separately?
The box includes the 4-port PCIe serial card, a 4-port serial octopus cable, four serial adapters, a low-profile bracket, a driver CD and a user manual. No additional cables or brackets are required for a standard installation.
Which version of the card should I choose for a PCIe 2.0 x1 slot?
The SI-PEX15042 is a PCIe 2.0 Gen 1 x1 card that also fits x2, x4, x8 and x16 slots, so a single version covers all those slot types.
What does the 2.5 Gbps per direction figure mean for real RS-232 throughput?
The 2.5 Gbps x1 link provides ample bandwidth for the Exar XR17V358 controller to run all four RS-232 ports at their maximum 16C550-compatible speeds without bottleneck.
