This works great to connect my Windows 7 laptop to Cisco.

This works great for connecting my windows 7 laptop to the console port of a cisco router. He downloaded and installed the drivers. I noticed that installing the drivers set my device to Com 6. Then I told putty to use that port. After that I was able to connect to Putty with no problems. So there are no problems with the combat, it just works.

Also, try extending the USB side with an extension cable and USB hub. previous knowledge Serial…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
