Gigabyte GA-H81TN onboard serial port - IDC-10?

train_wreck · Jan 14, 2015

Wanting to add a serial port expansion slot adapter to the GA-H81TN super-tiny ITX board. All the serial ports i'm finding online are DB-9 to IDC-10 (like this http://www.startech.com/Cables/Serial-Parallel-PS-2/DB9-DB25/9-pin-Serial-to-10-pin-Header-Slot-Plate-16-inches~PLATE9M16 ), but the port on the Gigabyte board doesn't visually look like that. Any ideas what it is?

I think the serial socket/port/pin the upper left one on the mobo

yellow socket/port/pin above the front audio..

u connect that to female connector of serial extension cable/port...

edit: for more clearly please refer to the motherboard guide book/manuals

What rdc85 said looks correct, except that the connector looks white to me. It's the 10-pin connector with the shroud around it.

The details on Your motherboard are available here: http://ca.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4752#ov

The manual (PDF) is available here: http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Manual/mb_manual_8series-tn_e.pdf
On page 28 connector #28 is the serial port header.

The Startech part you are referring to has a standard 2x5 0.1in connector. GA-H81TN is using a smaller, metric JST 2x5 2mm connector.
