Connecting to the serial port
=============================

If you don't need a serial console you can ignore this section.
Neither the APL or KBL NUCs present an external serial port interface.
However, the KBL NUC does have a serail port header you can
expose with a serial DB9 header cable. You can build this cable yourself,
referring to the `KBL NUC product specification
