This USB to RS422/485 adapter allows you to connect legacy serial devices to modern USB-enabled computers. It is ideal for use in industrial automation, digital signage, and point-of-sale systems where reliable serial communication is required. The adapter uses an FTDI FT232RL chipset, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of operating systems and software applications. It supports baud rates up to 921.6 Kbps, making it suitable for high-speed data transfer needs.

The adapter features a compact design with a 9-pin (DB9) male serial connector and dipswitch controls for easy configuration. It is USB-powered, eliminating the need for an external power source and reducing clutter. The COM port retention feature ensures that port settings are saved, allowing for quick reconnection without the need for reconfiguration each time. This makes it particularly useful in environments where frequent device connections and disconnections are common.

The ICUSB422 is designed for professional use and is TAA compliant, making it suitable for government and educational institutions. It supports various parity modes, data bits, and stop bits, providing flexibility in serial communication settings. The cable length of 6 feet (1.8 meters) offers sufficient reach for most setups without the need for additional extension cables. It is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems.

The adapter comes with minimal software requirements, making it easy to install and use right out of the box. It is recommended for users who need to interface with industrial equipment, barcode scanners, or other RS422/485 devices that do not have built-in USB connectivity. However, it may not be suitable for high-voltage environments due to its lack of isolation features.
