DIGITUS USB to DB9 RS232 cable with FT232RNL Chipset Transparent PVC Jacket, 1.8 m

Features

The DIGITUS USB-A > RS232 (M/M) adapter is designed for integrating RS232 devices into modern systems without a physical COM port. The design combines a data cable and a signal converter in one solution, simplifying connectivity.

The integrated FTDI FT232RNL chipset ensures accurate conversion of USB signals to RS232. This allows connection of modems, measuring instruments, industrial controllers and other compatible devices.

A full-duplex data transmission mode is supported with speeds ranging from 75 bps to 128 000 bps. Stable data transfer is maintained across different operating conditions.

Automatic driver installation in Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS enables immediate use without additional configuration. COM port retention ensures consistent device recognition by the system.

Gold-plated contacts provide stable signal transmission over extended use. LED indicators display data activity.

The 1.8 m cable provides flexible installation. The DB9 connector is equipped with screws for secure fastening.
