Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the USB to serial functionality, compatibility with various operating systems and devices, and the ease of use of this adapter cable. Many appreciate its quality and durable construction. However, some customers point out that the cable length is short, and that the lack of included drivers may pose a challenge for some users. Overall, the positive feedback on functionality and ease of use outweighs the concerns about cable length and driver support.

    Did exactly what it was supposed to. Used this to connect to the serial port on my APC SmartUPS. Bit expensive, but I was able to drive to the store and pick it up instead of waiting for it to arrive via boat from China.

    I needed to connect to a piece of equipment that still uses serial communications. The serial port on the PC was already connected to other equipment.I purchased this to use a USB port instead. Connection was a breeze and everything worked well.

    As a cisco geek, this USB to RS-232 device makes it really easy to console into the routers and switches I need to configure. Only downside is the RS-232 side doesn't have the female screw connectors to hold the cisco console cable to the adapter.

    Used this to interface between a laptop and phone switch in order to Telnet in and diagnose switch issues. Wish it was longer but needed it NOW and this was the only length available in the store. Did the job with some ingenuity.
