Low cost serial cards

I want to add two serial ports to an RB230. Does anyone know of a PCI expansion board that works with 2.8/2.9 other than those stated in the manual? All those boards are the equivalent of about $150!

Thanks in advance for any help.

Can you put a USB hub on and use USB serial?

Thanks for your suggestions guys, but I’m not sure that USB can be used for my purpose. Specifically, I want one serial port for console, one for UPS and one for a dial-up modem.

If you’ve got another 2u of space, get a used livingston PM2 from ebay.
