Quality Value Price - Use to communicate with fire panel
-
I needed this to help program and diagnose a fire alarm panel. I initially wired my connector incorrectly and could not get any communication. Thanks to the lights on this adapter I was able to quickly diagnose my mistake and get my programming done. I had originally used a more expensive adapter from a local store but couldn't get any communication and thought it was defective (which I later learned was my mistake). If you need a USB to serial, this is the only way to go!
Quality Value Price - Works, but

Would be nice if LED's were two color and showed true state of each line. Don't buy it for line monitoring capabilities.
Quality Value Price - It works fine

Easy to setup and use.

Don't mess around with other chipsets that can be unstable, have poor driver support and even may cause Blue Screen of Death when connecting and disconnecting. This has the very reliable FTDI chipset with status indicator lights at a great price. Cheers! ~Andrew

I have needed this for a while now. I ordered and received easy to use and worked perfect. makes life easier programming 2-way radios.
Quality Value Price - Very helpful when resolving RS232-USB problems
-
Too bad they put on the sticker slightly shifted so the indicators were not clear to see. Re-sticking it is a bit of a pain. For the rest a very handy and good working device.
Quality Value Price - Okay. Usable - though not perfect
-
It didn’t work for my project but I suppose I can use this cable. I will keep it. I like the data light feature, that’s the best thing about it.In terms of quality— It’s too expensive for the cheap looking design and feel.
Quality Value Price - Worked great on multiple devices so far.

I have had no issues connecting to, Watchguard, Cisco, Dlink, HP switch with this adapter and the Serial to RJ cable.

Quality Value Price - Great USB to RS232 converter.

Great little converter. Status LEDs are a bonus and an extreme help at times. Works great with no issues. Win 7 and Win 10 pick it up with no long and complicated driver install. Nice long cord. Highly recommended.

In a world of disappearing serial ports, this is a simple way to add one or more serial ports. The led indicators are very helpful to verify activity on each pin.

I'm using this to test science instruments with serial ports using the Mac terminal screen /dev/tty command. Works great. The indicator lights are helpful in ensuring TX and RX aren't crossed.
Quality Value Price - Works great

Works perfectly; used to connect an Apple IIgs to a Raspberry Pi for a SLIP connection to the network. Love having the feedback of the RS232 lights; made troubleshooting the initial connection effortless. Could do without the bright blue LED though.
Quality Value Price - It just does what it should do!
-
I never had a setup problem. It just works! It's worth the money!
Quality Value Price - Status LEDs actualy work
-
Not too much to say, it does what its name implies. But I have another brand of USB to RS232 adapter (which cost more) on which the LED just stay on all the time and don't indicate the status of anything, but on this one they work fine.
