I had an old laptop with a db9 serial port. Got a new laptop for birthday and needed a converter to use for my routers and switches. This cable was available local and cheaper than online store. Buy it, it's awesome

Got the job done but the cord is short. As long as you’re right next to the port or have an extension to the device, this USB to serial adapter will do the job. It is not a null modem.

Exactly what I was looking for. Needed to finish programming a fire panel at work. Had just enough in stock to supply the other employees with cables for their laptops. Just wish it was a few feet longer

I am giving this product a ten on a scale of one through ten. I went from a laptop to a tablet and instead of having to buy a whole new connector, I got this adapter for half the price from Best Buy.

This item works well. There is an issue where it does not work well with windows 10. After finding this glitch i purchased another computer with windows 11, and this cord worked. I purchased three of these thinking the cord went bad. My finding they all three worked fine with windows 11. Hope this helps someone.

The USB to Serial connection worked really well as long as you know how to change the port in Device manager to match what peripheral and software requires you to use. Very simple in nature without bulky software needs.

I had an older USB to RS232, but the drivers didn't work with WIndows10. This new product downloaded drivers automatically and connected with no problems!

Its a basic cable, nothing special here. Worked just fine on the first attempt to connect to a network switch. Seems durable and didn't have any dropouts.

This was a lifesaver. The guys didn’t know what I was looking for as I described it to them but pointed me in the right direction where I found the last one. Couldn’t find it anywhere else.
