This 4 port cable is a nice, portable
These things make life SOO much easier. We often need to run several devices simultaneously and get serial logs. This 4 port cable is a nice, portable solution

Iit will not leave you with devices that are worthless!
Most of the inexpensive serial to RS-232 converters have been bricked (made unusable) by an update to windows 7 and 8 by Prolific(FTDI) in order to punish counterfeiters of their chips and I can understand that. However, it leaves people like me with
devices that are worthless! I have several converters from GearMo that have seemed to survive. Don't know if it is the drivers they send or if they are using legitimate FTDI chips. The bottom line is that so far they work fine and are well built. I know for sure that the little blue converters and a lot of cheep ARDUINO boards suffer problems from the update. There is a somewhat involved workaround to fix the problem but I don't know if it is worth it. Could be that another update from Prolific could render the fake ones inoperable again. Bottom line..... Pay a little more, buy from Amazon and one way or another your problems will be taken care of.

One is not enough.
I love this thing. Works perfectly on Linux systems. We probably have 30 of these at work. Best bang for the buck.

SO much better than the Prolific
This USB-to-Serial adapter is SO much better than the Prolific one I have for another device. The instructions are too brief for a non-computer person, but sufficient. I've been using it for a month now to connect a ham radio's sound card and a TV tuner without a problem. Definitively recommended.

No more guessing which of your serial devices is /dev/ttyUSB?!
One killer feature: in linux, the serial ports enumerate in order. No more guessing which of your serial devices is /dev/ttyUSB?!
