Serial port connectors
Serial ports are used to communicate with printers, plotters, external
modems, auxiliary terminals, and other computers. Your server
provides two serial ports (1 and 2). You can add more serial ports
by installing a serial adapter in one of the expansion slots.
Serial ports transfer data asynchronously; they can transmit any
number of bits at any time, with no restriction on the duration of
the pauses between characters.
The serial ports transmit and receive data and commands at a rate
of 300 bits per second (bps) up to 115 200 bps. The bits-per-second
measurement is commonly referred to as the baud rate.
