Installation

WARNING! Computer parts can be severely damaged by static
electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your
computer case. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static
strap when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap
is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by
touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer case)
for several seconds.
Jumper Configuration
This card is specially designed to allow for power output from the ninth
pin of the DB9 connector(s) for devices that support power over serial.
This card allows users to set each port with 5V, 12V, or RI (no power)
by setting the jumper appropriately. Use the provided adapter cable to
connect the power header to the system power supply.

Hardware Installation

1.
Connect both of the ribbon cables in the respective header
connectors on the Mini PCI Express adapter card.
2.
Line up and insert the Mini PCI Express adapter card with the Mini
PCI Express slot on the system board. Match up the gap in the card
connector, with the notch in the slot.
3.
Press the Mini PCI Express adapter card back against the system
board, and snap the top edge of the adapter card into the Mini PCI
Express card retention clip on the system board. Some system
boards use small screws to secure the card rather than a retention
clip, so please refer to documentation for your system board for
specific installation procedures.
