USB to Serial RS-232 Adapter with LED Indicators, FTDI Chipset, Supports Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7, Mac OS X 10.6 and Above

Product Review (submitted on January 26, 2016):

The combination of the FTDI controller which is solid and ubiquitous (you likely already have the driver loaded) and the status LEDs for each signal line make this a great debugging tool. The blue power LED is a bit too bright (aren't they always) but it does make it easy to tell if the device is connected. The materials aren't fancy but feel solid and the cable is seems rugged enough. This one costs a bit more but if you think you might want to see what's going on with your serial comms then this one is worth it.
