This half size card provides 4 industry standard RS232 serial COM ports in a single Low Profile PCI slot. A fully moulded quad cable terminated in either 4 x 9 pin or 4 x 25 pin male 'D' connectors ensures neat and easy connections. As PCI is fully Plug and Play compatible the operating system or BIOS automatically configures the card ensuring conflict free installation. Low-Profile PCI is a new PCI card standard for space-constrained system designs. The new form factors maintain the same electricals, protocols, PC signals and software drivers as standard PCI v2.2 expansion cards. They are also mechanically similar; however, Low-Profile PCI is an additional form factor that defines a shorter raw card and new mounting bracket for card retention. The Low-Profile PCI definition is an engineering change notice (ECN) to the conventional PCI specification, Revision 2.2. The UC-260 has been approved by Microsoft WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs) which means it meets the designed for Windows XP and Server 2003 standards. The designed for Windows XP and Server 2003 logo identifies products that have been developed to meet Microsoft's quality standards and that deliver a high quality computing experience.

The UC-260 uses Brainboxes new industry leading UART BB16PCI958 and supports both 3.3V / 5V standards. Increasingly, modern PCs are coming with 3.3V PCI slots. The change from 5V to 3.3V signalling on the PCI bus is a result of the technical advances made by leading PC manufacturers such as Dell, HP and IBM to increase system speed while reducing onboard PC power consumption. What this means is that many new PC systems no longer use 5V signalling on the PCI bus, and 5V-only PCI cards cannot be used in these PCs. As part of our continued commitment to designing and manufacturing leading edge serial RS232 technology, we now offer the Universal PCI range that can work in both 5V and 3.3V signalling environments. This allows new and existing customers to have an easy migration path to this new technology.
