Serial ports

The SBC-455 offers two RS-232 serial ports. You can select or
disable the address for each port with the BIOS Peripheral Setup
program.

The card mounting bracket holds COM A, the DB-9 serial port
connector for the first port. The parallel port and serial port
adapter kit (supplied with the card) holds COM B, the DB-9
connector for the second port. This lets you connect and discon-
nect the cables after you install the card. The following sections
tell how to make RS-232 connections.
