What is the difference between this and cheap Chinese junk

Don't be fooled by a card that costs less than $30. This worked fantastically well and I assigned it COM ports 2, 3, 4 and 5 to work with my older devices. A cheap Chinese model that I fell for earlier, the drivers broke my computer and it took a full 3 hours.

Pros
  • 128 byte FIFO for transmitter and receiver
Cons
  • confused

Flexible solution with 4 serial ports.

Adds 4 serial ports to any computer. It has a low profile for slim PCs and comes with a full-height PC mount. It also supports serial devices. The board has jumpers and a molex power connector if you want to enable a powered serial port. I install point-of-sale devices and serial connections are still popular. This allows you to use only one slot and add 4 ports.

Pros
  • Low Profile Half Height Mounting Bracket; includes standard profile bracket
Cons
  • So-so
