🔌 Highly Compatible USB to RS232 Adapter with PL2303 Chip, CableCreation USB to DB9 Serial Female Converter for Windows, Mac, and Linux - Black Review

As new technology develops, it is difficult to find old equipment needed to service old systems. I was lucky enough to find this item. We needed this to convert some old hardware for use in a Legendary system. This product did the job perfectly. So don't throw away that old hardware, it's still used in old lab environments. Something to think about $$$

The description does not mention that this adapter outputs a serial TTL signal that is not compatible with RS-232. Although most modern devices with "RS-232" ports support a TTL serial port, some devices still insist on a higher voltage drop per the RS-232 specification and will not work with this non-standard adapter. It would be inaccurate and misleading to sell this as an RS-232 adapter.

I've used this for simple terminal operations on Cisco hardware on 3 different Win10 PCs and it's pretty easy. Windows will take a few minutes to finish setting up the drivers and virtual serial port. Then just start PuTTY (e.g.), select "Connection type: Serial" and change the serial line to COM3 or COM5 - whatever the computer has selected in Device Manager. , but can also be easily used with a USB extension cable. And I don't have to worry about cable wear and tear.

Arrived quickly. Brand new and date unknown. The driver installation is not yet complete. i like the size It's lightweight and not bulky, so good for portability.

Attempts to change the position of the pointer result in screen windows opening. It comes with a driver on an included disc. It can be…

I ordered 2 of these USB to RS232 adapters for use with ham radios. The main reason was to replace a pair of connectors with many different connectors. I wanted to have the most direct connection possible. One of the main considerations was that they had female DB9 connectors. After trying to get her to work all day, I give up. The computer (Windows 7 Pro) recognizes that they are present, but I cannot transfer device data. Other USB to RS232 adapters work with gender reassignment but not this…

Mainly used this to get data from a serial device to an app running on an Android device (specifically a Note8 running Oreo with this OTG adapter). As a result I have an OTG adapter (USBC->USB), then this (USB->Serial) to the device. Not very clean but works well enough for the times I need to use it. Pros: Plug and play with Android (by far the biggest plus). No special applications/drivers are required. Can maintain high data rate with only the power of the device (19.2K for my needs)…
