Core Features
-
Industrial-Grade FTDI FT232R Chipset
- Utilizes the FTDI FT232R chip for stable, low-latency data conversion (up to 3Mbps baud rate).
- Plug-and-play driver support for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android, eliminating compatibility issues.
-
Ultra-Compact Design
- 10CM standard length (custom lengths available) for space-constrained setups (e.g., embedded systems, test benches).
- Lightweight yet durable construction with a White/Blue PVC jacket for easy identification in cable management.
-
Secure DB9 Connection
- DB9 Male connector with front nuts ensures vibration-resistant, screw-locked attachment to serial devices.
- Gold-plated contacts on both USB-A and DB9 connectors for superior conductivity and corrosion resistance.
-
Cross-Platform Compatibility
- Works with all major OS: Windows (XP/7/8/10/11), macOS (10.10+), Linux (kernel 2.6+), and Android (OTG support).
- Supports legacy and modern devices, including routers, PLCs, barcode scanners, and industrial controllers.
-
Customization Options
- Available in custom lengths and bulk orders for industrial/enterprise needs.
- RoHS/CE/FCC compliant for global safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
