• Configuring network equipment and industrial controllers via serial console
• Data transfer and logging with serial-enabled measurement instruments
• Field service, maintenance, and laboratory setups that require temporary serial connections

Key specifications

• Length: 1.5 metres
• Connectors: USB Type-A (male) to DB-9 (male)
• Colour: Black
• Weight: approximately 165 g
• Environmental compliance: RoHS

How to use

Connect the USB Type-A plug to an available USB port on your computer and attach the DB-9 connector to the serial port of the target device. If your operating system requires a driver for USB-to-serial conversion, install the appropriate driver provided by your OS or device manufacturer before establishing communication. Once connected and drivers are installed, use your preferred terminal, configuration, or data-logging software to access the serial interface.

Recommendations

The cable is intended for standard serial communication; avoid subjecting connectors to excessive bending or strain. For reliable long-term performance, keep connections clean and store the cable coiled without tight kinks. When using in industrial environments, ensure proper grounding and use surge protection if required by the equipment.
