PS2 Port and USB on a PCI card. It has maybe a NEC Chip on it - cannot recognice so good on the picture.
I am curious, if it works in pure DOS on a 486 board or something newer - at least the PS2 mouse port would be nice.

No, it won't work in DOS. It's really a USB card with PS/2 ports.

You should read the PS/2 mouse port thread. We're working on it.

That USB card also only works with certain mice in Windows NT 4.0 as well. With a 486, just having that USB card installed reduced some benchmark scores in Windows 98SE, so it may also reduce overall system performance.
