  • Patent number: 8245058
    Abstract: A serial port connector with power output function includes a serial port having a plurality of pins. Under the existing EIA-RS-232, EIA-RS-422, and EIA-RS-485 standards for connectors, the definition of the pins of the serial port are altered, so that a pin that was originally defined as floating or for serial data communication signal is now changed to a power output specification. Thus, when the connector is connected via the same one cable to a serial port peripheral device, the connector can provide both functions of serial data communication signal transmission and power transmission to thereby largely increase the usability of the connector.
