USB to RS232 DB9 Serial Cable Male Converter Adapter with FTDI Chipset for Windows 11,10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP, 2000, Linux and Mac OS X 10.6 (10ft)…

Got this to use with my Motorola 9 pin serial that requires a RIB box to rear and write to the radio (Motorola XTS5000)Installation is super easy. Plugged it into my Windows 11 laptop and the drivers was automatically installed and assign a com port.The cable is well made with some good strain relief on the end of the connectors. Length wise it's longer than what I needed but that's not a cons. Haven't tested this in the older windows machine so I can't tell if it works or not but so far it works great on my Windows 11 laptop and Windows 10 desktop. So anything older than that, you might have a compatibility issues.Like I had mentioned before. It works with the Motorola programming cable without the need for a RIB box. No issues on connectivity even after I disconnect the cable and plug it in again into another USB port.

Worked perfectly right out of the package on Windows 11..no driver needed but I may already had them on my PC. Excellent build quality as well. I'm happy with it.

This worked very well with a Windows laptop. I was worried about USB C to Serial but it worked great with zero communication issues. Will use this cable going forward instead of the older USB port style. I used this cable to communicate from a PC to upload lighting control sofware to a Lutron processor.

For anyone that has legacy RS-232 equipment that they still want to control with a new computer with no serial ports, this fills the bill nicely.

Hello and Blessings! I ordered this cable for work to connect to special equipment. Price was fair, but probably could have found cheaper, but not by much. Seems to be well made, I would say better quality than the old radio schack USB to RS232. However you will need to search online and download a driver. My PC could not auto install the driver. There arn't any directions or instructions on which website to use, or what drivers work. I configured my cable to my HP running on windows 10,in the moment on the job site. It was frustrating at first but the outcome went well and I was blessed to figure it out. I would recomend this product for being a well made basic cable, and would encourage the seller or maker to add an extra note to the buyer, just a thought.... All thanks and Glory be to God! May God Bless you all, Fist bumps Ya'll

This cable is exactly what I needed. I had a legacy Com port device. It ran perfectly off my new laptop USB interface.

I had been using an old Vista laptop to connect to an electronic device in my homebuilt aircraft. With the Black Friday deals going on, I bought a nice HP windows 10 laptop and upgraded it to Win 11. So far, so good. Unfortunately, when I tried to hook my new computer to the device with my old usual USB to Serial cable, there was no connection. Rats. So, I went through all the usual stuff. Looking for obscure drivers, driver unloaders, etc., etc.Finally, on an avionics forum, someone mentioned this cable. I got it right away and went to the FTDI chip site for drivers and downloaded their latest update Win 11 driver package for my HP. Then after all that, bingo! It connected just find and I am now able to download all my flight and engine information. Now I can put my old Windows Vista laptop back on Ebay.

Fast shipping. Packaged well. Didn’t work for what I needed it to.
