Startech 4-port Expresscard RS232 Serial Adapter Review
By Kwok Ngai Loon
Works as expected, but the molded joint connecting the 4 cables and the card is not as solid as I had thought. Comparing to a similar product, the Socket Serial ruggedized 4-port PCMCIA adapter card, the StarTech card's build quality is a notch lower. One good feature of the StarTech card is that each individual RS232 connector has a embossed label like "P1", "P2" etc, to clearly identify each port, unlike the Socket Serial card which is not labelled at all. Since Socket Serial doesn't make RS232 adapters for Expresscards, the StarTech remains the most viable and affordable alternative.
