AXAGON PCEA-S2N
AXAGON PCEA-S2N
The AXAGON PCEA-S2N PCI-Express controller card effectively expands a desktop PC with two independent RS-232 serial ports, which use standard DB9 connectors. The card installs into any x1, x4, x8, or x16 PCI-Express slot on the motherboard and is fully compatible with the PCIe 2.0 interface and older versions. Thanks to the ASIX AX99100 chipset and Plug and Play support, configuration is automatic without any complex setup. The package also includes low-profile brackets, making it easy to install in both standard and compact computer cases.
Key features of the AXAGON PCEA-S2N controller card

- Powered by the high-performance ASIX AX99100 chipset
- Each port reaches a transmission speed of up to 250kBd
- Each channel uses a separate 256-byte Transmit and Receive FIFO buffer
- Integrated ESD protection against electrostatic discharge: ±15KV Air, ±8KV Contact
- Low-profile brackets included for easy installation in slim cases
ASIX chipset performance
The card is based on the ASIX AX99100 chipset, which provides broad compatibility with various operating systems. The transmission speed for each port is up to 250kBd, and each port has its own 256-byte Transmit and Receive FIFO buffer for a smooth data flow. The card supports the UART 16C550, Extended 16C550, and 16C950 standards for stable operation with professional applications.
Flexible installation and connectivity
The controller uses the PCI-Express 2.0 interface and is backward compatible with PCIe 1.0a, 1.1, 2.1, and 3.0 slots. It can be installed in any x1, x4, x8, or x16 slot. The package includes both standard and low-profile brackets, so installation in low-profile PC cases is seamless. The card's rear bracket offers two external RS-232 ports with standard DB9 male connectors.
Peripheral connection and protection
The card is ideal for connecting specialised and industrial devices such as POS systems, barcode readers, CNC machines, modems, or ATMs. Both serial ports feature ESD protection against electrostatic discharge, safeguarding your computer's sensitive electronics from damage. The integrated protection meets the ±15KV Air Gap Discharge and ±8KV Contact Discharge standards.
