USB to RS232/DB9 Cable

Works well with Linux

I needed a USB to RS-232 Male serial cable for some programming at my job. My initial thoughts when unpacking the cable and seeing a CD to install drivers was, great another piece of software on my laptop that is already loaded with work software. Because I did not want to install another driver on my laptop, I decided to try the cable without installing the drivers and it worked without an issue. This is not to say there may be devices that communicate better with the proper drivers installed, but for my use, it was plug and play. I was using Windows 10 as the operating system. You will most likely need to install drivers to work on older operating systems. Overall the quality of the cable is exceptional and exceeded my expectations. Great cable for the price!

The wbesite in the manual for drivers is wrong, but found it eventually. Otherwise works just fine.

This again was old school technology use, use to use Rs-232 to RS-232. No longer can on windows 11 so needed USB worked as advertised.

Good quality .

I bought this item to plug my Logitech G920 pedals directly into my computer when I had to send my Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V3 back to get repaired. My desire to race was very high, but I had no pedals to use. So... I bought this adapter hoping to plug my old Logitech pedals directly into my computer without having to connect it to the wheelbase. Unfortuantely, this adapter does not support that, and so this product did not work for what I needed. Turns out the adpater I was actually needing is about $80. I ended up just waiting it out until my Fanatec pedals returned after a few weeks.

I have purchased these - they came with the PL-2303 chip inside and work just fine on my Mac, both M1 and M2. Also on my PC (windows 10). However I purchased 1 recently and it is not recognized by my Mac (M2). It does work on my PC, but the mac won't recognize it. Downloading the newest drivers didn't change that. From the Macs System Information/USB listing... the old, working version of this cable shows a Product ID of 0x2303, vendor Prolific. This new, non-working cable, shows up as Product ID 23a3, vendor = Prolific. I'm guessing the product ID is not matching the driver for some reason. I've done some searching around the internet and haven't seen any references to this.... other than the general advice to get an FTDI chip cable and not use the 2303 cable. The product information does not mention this issue - everything just says compatible with Mac.

Doesn't work with windows 11. Tried downloading drivers from the website, but no success. Ended up buying TRENDnet USB to Serial 9-Pin Converter Cable, Connect a RS-232 Serial Device to a USB 2.0 and it worked perfectly no need to install any extra drivers with Windows 11.

Super kabel van goed materiaal en maakt gebruik van de Prolific PL2303GT chip. Werkt goed op Windows 7 tot er met 11!!! Wordt met automatische update voorzien van de juiste driver! Op diverse apparaten getest en werkt uitstekend:)

Good quality, no driver needed. Just works.

conforme et fonctionne sans problème, bonne qualité

Win11で問題無く使えました。激安(500円くらい)のケーブルだと三菱のPLCに使えませんでしたが 、この製品はOKでした。安価に購入できて良かったです。

i have multiple of these and work great, we use them for our older embroidery machines as they run on serial ports. we have tried multiple of these and the only ones that work are the ones with the prolific chipset. would recommend for anyone trying to connect older machinery
