Set the host computer system
power switch to OFF.
Locate a free PCI expansion slot.
Insert and secure the adapter
firmly into the expansion slot.
Replace the power cord and turn
the host computer ON.
Software Installation
Refer to the appropriate software documentation,
located on your SuperSerial CD-ROM, for detailed
device driver information.
SST Fanout Cables
SST-4 and SST-8 PCI adapters require a fanout
cable (ordered separately). SST Fanout Cables
(FOCs) provide four or eight RS-232 interfaces. The
following diagrams illustrate pinouts and signals for
DB-9, DB-25 and RJ-45 fanout cables.

Overview
SST-

P and SST-
8
P PCI adapters are
intelligent, high-speed (up to 920k bps on each
port) PCI expansion boards, which provide high
performance serial I/O solutions for a PCI bus
host computer. All port interfaces are standard
RS-232, with full modem control and voltage
surge protection on every pin.
SST PCI adapters appear to the system host
processor as memory. That is, they are memory
mapped devices. Each adapter is automatically
mapped into system memory at the time of
device driver installation.
SST adapters occupy a PCI slot in the
host computer and provide the intelligent
functions to "off-load" the CPU from serial
communications processing tasks.
Hardware Installation
Use the following procedure to install your SST
PCI adapter. As an alternative, you may follow
the installation instructions presented in your
host computer documentation.

USA Notification
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Canadian Notification
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in
the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils
numériques de la classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par le Ministère des
Communications du Canada.
Rack Mount Safety
Elevated Ambient Temperature: If installed in a closed rack assembly, the operation
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Use care
not to exceed the rated maximum ambient temperature of the unit.
Reduced Airflow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount
of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a
hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit and the effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection
and supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings for maximum current.
Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack mounted equipment should be maintained. Pay particular attention
to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use of power strips).

RJ-45 Modular Cabling
The following modular adapters are available
from Avocent to convert RJ-45 modular
jacks to DB-25 or DB-9 connectors.
4
The modular adapters listed above, when
used with 10-wire modular reversing cables
as shown below, may be used to attach
devices to SST RJ-45 FOC ports. If a
customer-supplied modular cable is used,
make sure the cable is reversing.
