Embroidery machine connector
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

Very good, installed automatically with no problems under Windows 10
I used this product for a machine for customer, as PCs don;t have serial ports any more, I needed to get RS232 data in to it. Good price and postage included

Works properly.
Works perfectly on Windows, drivers don't work on Macos high Sierra but 3rd party serial app picks it up and works perfectly.

Worked out of the box. Easy setup.
Used for connecting car diagnostic tool to my laptops. Worked fine out of the box. Both systems auto detected the device and automatically installed drivers. Cannot fault.. very happy with purchase!

Longer VGA part
It looks like good quality but I can't test it out on my monitor because the VGA part is too long/doesn't allow to line up correctly with the port so I can't actually use it. Will hold onto it incase I can use it for something else but a shame as I wanted to extend my laptop screen to the monitor.

Worked for me like a treat
Was a bit worried after finding out that such cables can be bought for 50 odd quid But after downloading the driver it worked bang on..

Signal generated by my unit not RS232 compliant.
Didn’t generate sufficient voltage on its transmit pins for the UPS I was using it to communicate with to be able to correctly/reliably receive my commands. Any data received from the UPS was received without error though. Switching to a different USB RS232 transceiver solved all my problems and the communications became 100% reliable. Disappointing. I do not recommend.
