Add RS-232 serial communication support to USB-A enabled Data Terminal Equipment (DTE – e.g., desktop or laptop), using this 10ft (3m) straight through USB to Serial Adapter Cable.
Features:
- INTERCHANGEABLE NUTS & SCREWS: Secure the adapter to a serial device using the pre-installed DB9 screws, or install the included DB9 Nuts for compatibility with serial peripheral devices/cables; Add a DB9 RS-232 port to a computer, using a USB-A port
- LED INDICATORS: Transmit and Receive LED indicators offer real-time monitoring of port activity, while the USB LED indicates when the adapter is successfully recognized by the desktop or laptop
- COMPATIBILITY: Works with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux; Drivers auto-install in Windows 7+, macOS 10.15+, and Linux; COM retention enables the COM port to automatically re-assign if the cable is disconnected/reconnected or if the system is rebooted
- BUILD QUALITY: Solid one-piece molded TPE housing and Level-4 ESD protection (15kV air/8kV contact) enhance reliability and longevity; Copper shielding minimizes EMI/RFI interference; Gold-plated connectors; Extended operating temperature of –40°C to 80°C
- TECH SPECS: 10ft (3m) Cable Length; FTDI FT232R Chipset; Max Baud Rate: 921.6Kbps; 128 Byte RX and 256 Byte TX FIFO; Odd/Even/Mark/Space/None Parity Modes; 7 or 8 Data Bits; 1 or 2 Stop bits
Serial Port Expansion
The USB Serial Adapter adds an RS-232 serial DB/DE-9 (male) connector to a
desktop or laptop via a USB Type-A port. Secure the adapter to a serial device,
using pre-installed and removable slotted D-Sub thumbscrews or install the
included DB-9 Nuts for compatibility with other serial peripheral devices or
cables.
LED Indicators
Data transmission and reception LED indicators on the adapter provide real-time
monitoring of port activity. The USB LED indicates when the adapter has
successfully enumerated on the desktop or laptop. All the LEDs aid with
diagnostics and troubleshooting.
Seamless Connectivity
The adapter is compatible with Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux. Drivers
automatically install to Windows 7 and newer versions, macOS 10.15 and above,
and Linux. The USB to RS-232 adapter features COM retention, which
automatically reassigns the COM port value if the cable is disconnected and
reconnected, or if the system is rebooted.
Built To Last
The rugged TPE construction and Level-4 ESD protection (15kV air and 8kV
contact) enhance the reliability and longevity of the USB to Serial Adapter.
Copper shielding minimizes Electromagnetic and Radio Frequency Interference (EMI
and RFI). Gold-plated connectors enhance signal conductivity.
Applications:
- Add RS-232 capabilities to USB-enabled Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) to connect Data Communication Equipment (DCE) peripherals
- Connect, monitor, and control industrial sensors and equipment
- Connect bar code scanners, receipt printers, and other point of sale devices
- Program LED and digital signage boards with serial communication ports
