Description

Black Box IC984C Serial Board

Overview

The Black Box IC984C is a PCIe serial board designed to add extensive legacy serial port connectivity to servers and workstations. It provides 16 RS-232 ports via DB25 connectors, making it suitable for environments requiring integration with older industrial equipment, laboratory instruments, or specific point-of-sale systems that rely on serial communication. This board is GSA and TAA compliant, meeting procurement requirements for government agencies and federal contractors.

Compatibility

This PCIe serial board is compatible with systems running Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11, as well as Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012, 2016, and 2019. It requires a free PCIe x1 slot or larger. The DB25 connectors are standard for RS-232 signaling, ensuring broad compatibility with devices that use this interface.

Installation Notes

Installation requires opening the host system and seating the PCIe card into an available slot. Ensure the system is powered off and grounded before installation. Drivers are typically installed from provided media or downloaded from the manufacturer's support site. The 16 RS-232 ports are accessed via 16x DB25 connectors on the card's bracket.
