Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the overall performance and compatibility of the "1.3' USB-to-RS-232 (DB9) PDA/Serial Adapter Cable, with Prolific Chipset". Users appreciate its USB functionality and ease of use. The price is also considered a bargain, and driver installation is straightforward. However, some customers have noted that the cable length is quite short.
