Excellent buy. Will need an USB extender as when working in small spaces there isn't much cord length.

not too many remember what Serial Port (or COM 1) is, but if you have relic equipment with this interface and need to connect to newer one, this one gets the job done

Good help from well informed sales people. What can you say about a cable - it works . It's handy to have Best Buy nearby when you need a cable or part.

Solid product, works very well, easy to install. The price is a bit higher than expected, but the convenience of being in stock and local helps to overlook that.

Not Plug & Play

The cable works good but this is not plug & play, I need to download the correct drivers from third vendor, check the proper IC inside of the adaptor and after that the cable works well. You also can buy another in the web per half price and come with drivers.
