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.

    I needed it for software development with an older prototyping kit. Plugged in and system loaded software automatically and ran without any issues. No problems.

    These come in handy since todays laptops lack a serial port, easy to use installation was a breeze as it was recognized by windows 10 and available in seconds

    I use it to interface with older RS-232 units I have. Most modern computers don't even have compatibility with this older connection and this does the job perfectly.

    I work with a lot of legacy applications that still communicate via serial port (not a common feature on newer PCs). Windows automagically recognized this hardware and it worked...no issues.

    No review is better than someone telling you that the product works. It did what it was supposed to and nothing more. Cut and dry. It works and didn't cost and arm and a leg.
