Review on πŸ”Œ CableCreation Console Adapter: A Perfect Fit for NETGEAR Industrial Electrical Systems by Jason Childs

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great with HP Procurve

Used with Putty and connected straight away on Win10 with no issues. It shows up as "Unknown USB device" under "USB Controllers" but is also recognized as "USB Serial Port (COM5)" under "Ports" so there's no problem getting it to work with Windows. It's nice to have a black console cable compared to the standard blue cables.

Pros
  • Handy serial cable for connecting to proprietary routers, switches, firewalls, WiFi controllers and other console port devices such as Cisco, Ubiquiti, Ubiquiti, TP-Link, Linksys, Juniper, Fortigate, Mikrotik, Huawei, HP ProCurve. Powered by USB port, no external power supply required.
Cons
  • Very expensive
