dd RS-232 serial communication support to USB-A enabled Data Terminal Equipment (DTE – e.g., desktop or laptop), using this 3.3ft (1m) straight through USB to Serial Adapter Cable.
- 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
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.</p>
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.</p>
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.
