Did exactly what I needed to connect to my device via serial interface. It's kinda expensive but no issues getting the serial console to work. It even works on a Macbook (but good serial console software is hard to find).

I have an old US Robotics External 56K Fax Modem, but the computer I'm to use it on, doesn't have a connector. So I had to purchase this cable, so I could load and run the fax software with the modem on my Windows 10 computer.

I needed this for some firewall and router programming from my laptop. This was recognized instantly in Windows 10, automatically loaded drivers so I didn't even have to bother. Instantly I had a serial port I could use for console access... Can't ask for more.

I needed to reprogram a high end network switch and this did the job. It didn’t fight me or make me install any drivers.

Bought this as the old one didn't have drivers for Windows 10. Installed and Windows found the requisite driver in seconds. 4 stars would have been 5 if the cord had been longer. 1.3 feet seems to be rather short for most applications. Had to buy a USB extension cable which works fine.
