Works well at high speed

Use with a pair of TRENDnet USB to serial converters, connect an RS-232 serial device to the USB port, easy install, universal Plug and Play, TU-S9 Adapter and Additional Tester, GGLABS Mini RS-232 DB9 Monitor and Switching Adapter. Good setup for testing PPP connections between Linux systems. Just don't ask why I need PPP connections ;) Also handy for connecting to DB-9 serial consoles. I like to use a cable, tester and USB serial adapter for this because I can see which signals are active. I…

Pros
  • - Connect serial devices and transfer files
Cons
  • Not the best option

RS232 alive and well

What I liked about it is that it worked. One of those critters, your life has changed for the worse. RS232 went the way of the DoDo bird. Unless you're working with archaic electronic devices owned by the museum. So I need a Null RS232 cable. Laptops and/or tablets and/or smartphones no longer support RS232 (aka serial port). First you need a USB to RS232 adapter + driver + a way to check if the simulated port is working. NI-Max to set up the adapter and verify that it is working. This…

Pros
  • 1x DB9(F)/1x DB9(F)
Cons
  • Functionality

Null modem cable with lots of ZEROs

This is actually a good null modem cable. I use them on my travels as a network engineer. Works as it should. Don't forget to get a sex reassignment surgery.

Pros
  • Good shielding prevents EMI
Cons
  • Not for everyone

Bought this cable for console with my Brocade 10gb switches and didn't go, finally found cable spec for console Brocade cables and its 2<->2 3<->3 7<->7 8<->8 others are reserved. I had to shorten and patch the cable. No vendor fault, he says ZERO, and pretty sure Cisco etc is keeping an eye on it, but Brocade is doing its thing :-( 2 hours later the switch is up.

Pros
  • 9 pin null modem cable
Cons
  • color not required

Typical StarTech quality

The quality was what I expected and it did the job. I was able to access the serial console on a used switch that I bought to factory reset.

Pros
  • RS232 null modem cable
Cons
  • Almost never

Works for my Isilon device connection

packaging was simple but effective in a small pouch. Although thumbscrews could be used with the thumbscrews built into the grips. The cable was a bit thinner than expected, but still lived up to expectations.

Pros
  • DB9 female to female cable
Cons
  • boring packaging
