Good product doesnt work well with windows 10.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

It Works
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchase to connect Industrial control equipment ( PLCs HMI, AFDs, Servos, etc. that only has a RS-232 Port for communications, Use with Windows 7 & 10 without problems. Would have given it a 5-Star rating if it would have had Tx & Rx LED, but that would be a lot to ask for on a low cost unit
