Introduction
SUNIX M2S6456AR, 4 ports RS-232 PCI-Express Serial M.2 Card, allows users to expand four RS-232 ports on M.2 (Type 2242) with Key-M or Key-B based PC-based system. The RS-232 COM ports can be attached to a housing or slot bracket. Each serial port achieves data rates up to 460.8Kbps and utilizes 16C950 UART with an on-chip 128-bytes hardware FIFO buffer for reliable, high-speed serial I/O. Each COM port is provided with ±15KV IEC61000-4-2 ESD protection, and it is the best serial communicating solution for commercial and industrial automation applications.
