PM-020 Single Port RS232 (9D) Serial PCMCIA Card
PCMCIA is the classic way of adding serial connectivity to laptops. Increasingly new laptops are coming without PCMCIA slots and using the new ExpressCard slots instead. The PCMCIA range includes 1 or 2 ports in either RS232 or RS422/485 serial connectivity. As standard most PCMCIA cards have removable cables terminating in a 9 pin D connector. Ruggedised PCMCIA cards have permanently attached cables for increased security.
