This USB-A to DB9 RS232 adapter cable allows users to connect legacy serial devices to modern computers with USB ports. It is ideal for professionals working with industrial equipment, embedded systems, or older hardware that relies on RS-232 communication. The cable provides a reliable bridge between USB and serial interfaces, making it a valuable tool for IT technicians, engineers, and hobbyists who need to maintain or troubleshoot older devices.
The adapter features interchangeable DB9 screws and nuts, offering flexibility in securing it to various serial devices. This ensures compatibility with a wide range of peripherals and cables. LED indicators on the adapter provide real-time feedback on data transmission, reception, and USB recognition, which simplifies troubleshooting and diagnostics. The USB LED confirms that the adapter is properly recognized by the host system.
The adapter supports multiple operating systems including Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux. It automatically installs drivers on Windows 7 and newer versions, as well as macOS 10.15 and above. COM port retention ensures that the assigned COM port remains consistent even after disconnection or system reboot, reducing configuration hassles. This makes it particularly useful in environments where stable communication is critical.
Built with a solid TPE housing and Level-4 ESD protection, the adapter is durable and resistant to environmental stress. Copper shielding minimizes interference from electromagnetic and radio frequency sources, ensuring clear signal transmission. Gold-plated connectors enhance conductivity and reduce signal loss. The operating temperature range of -40°C to 80°C makes it suitable for use in extreme conditions.
The cable is 3ft (1m) long and uses the FTDI FT232R chipset for reliable performance. It supports baud rates up to 921.6Kbps with various parity modes, data bits, and stop bits configurations. This versatility ensures compatibility with a wide range of serial communication standards.
