I need a RS232 card for the Mac Pro (so it can connect to the APC UPS for monitoring and safe shutdown).
I have seen plenty of pcie cards on ebay (all work out at about £25 shipped with the exchange rate). My question is will any of them work? I have to asume that Mac OSX supports RS232 comms, but will the Mac Pro detect the card (its only a comms board after all).
I dont want to use a USB-Serial adaptor if I can help it.
Has anyone here found a card that works for them?
Thanks
