Serial Port Extension Bracket
If you want to have a second external serial port available in your
computer case, you must install a serial port extension bracket.
1. Locate the serial port connector COM2. Remove a blanking plate
from a free expansion slot in the system chassis.
2. Plug the cable from the serial port extension bracket into the COM2
connector on the mainboard. The port connected to COM2 is
identified as COM2/4
3. Install the metal bracket into the expansion slot in the system
chassis from which you removed the blanking plate.
4. Secure the bracket by driving a screw through the slot in the top of
the metal bracket into the system chassis.
