The StarTech PLATE9MLP is a low-profile bracket designed to bring a standard DB9 serial port to a motherboard's internal 10-pin header. This adapter is essential for integrating legacy serial devices, such as older industrial equipment, diagnostic tools, or specific point-of-sale peripherals, into systems that may lack native serial ports. Its low-profile form factor ensures compatibility with compact computer chassis, making it suitable for deployments in space-constrained environments like server racks or embedded systems. The PLATE9MLP facilitates the connection of devices requiring RS232 communication via a standard serial interface.
This adapter is compatible with any motherboard featuring a 10-pin IDC serial header (often labeled COM, SERIAL, or UART). It provides a standard 9-pin D-Sub (DB9) male connector, which is the common interface for most RS232 serial devices. The 10.4-inch (26.5 cm) cable length offers flexibility in routing the connection within a PC case to accommodate various motherboard layouts and component placements.
Installation involves connecting the 10-pin IDC connector to the corresponding header on the motherboard. Ensure correct pin alignment to avoid damage to the header or the adapter. The bracket then mounts to an available low-profile expansion slot opening on the computer chassis, providing a secure external port. The cable length is sufficient for most standard ATX and smaller form factor cases.
