Sabrent 6-Foot USB 2.0 to Serial DB-9 RS-232 Adapter Cable

Comment:
Functions fine. I can connect to my routers and something else that could will need serial. Drivers for vista 64.

Comment:
Works in XP No Vista 64 bit drivers.

Nothing special. Didn't work with my serial hardware. I utilised the very same settings as my old PC that has a serial port. Going to try the CABLES UNLIMITED USB-2920 USB 2. to Serial DB9 Adapter as listed below.

This cable does precisely what it needs to do. This is the excellent cable if you want to use it to connect to Cisco routers or switches via console cable (serial). This also works with 64bit drivers. The excellent of the cable is also extremely good and quite well produced. This is not like 1 of those other cheapy produced in China cables. This 1 is really properly made. I prefer quality and then cost. This product meets each criteria. The cheezy looking driver disc that came with the cable. The mini disc looks like somebody burned the cd out of their garage straight from China. Not a huge deal due to the fact I downloaded the most recent drivers from Sabrent's web page. I prefer the newest drivers directly from the manufacturer anyway. You will absolutely be happy if you get this cable.

Comment:
Cable does specifically what it says, was a small weary questioning if the driver disk contained drivers for vista but vista pulled them appropriate in and it works perfectly. none For the cost you can't beat the product...

Doesnt work No drivers nor CD This factor is cr8p, came with no drivers. plugged in windows couldn't recognize it.. Downloaded the drivers and still no go.. CR8P Tried it on windows 7 32-bit and 64 bit.

It just works. I required the capacity to connect to a serial console on a firewall and we no longer had a personal computer with a DB-9 RS-232 connection, so I bought this. I am utilizing Windows 7 64-bit and the installation went fairly well:- plug in the USB connector to PC- Windows tries to load a driver and fails, but you get the likelihood to "click her for options to resolve", and one of the options is to let Windows grab a driver from the net- Windows 7 grabs the appropriate driver with no you having to make any further selections, installs it, and you're off to the races.I did not even insert the CD that came with the cable. Maybe the correct drivers are there...I don't have any notion. Not actually an issue with the cable, but it would be good if Windows somehow magically shipped with the driver already present. Putty supports serial connections and let me connect to my Soekris box to view console output, but did not send my keyboard commands to the Soekris. I switched to TeraTerm and it worked fine for me.

I'm addicted to my ancient Psion Revo / Diamond Mako palmtop (still the finest PDA ever produced in my opinion), which uses a serial cable to sync with the desktop PsiWIn software program. My new desktop has only USB ports. So I got this cable to hook my serial PDA dock up to my machine. I installed the driver and it's operating fine, as long as I keep the baud rate to 57600 or below (which I feel is a Psion<->XP concern, not 1 with the cable). none for me. The CD with the driver was a mini business card kind, so if your machine then you could have an problem.

This 6-foot version of the shorter SBT-USC1K is natively compatible with Linux through the pl2303 driver (listed in the kernel configuration as "USB Prolific 2303 Single Port Serial Driver".) I have had no difficulties utilizing speeds up to 115200 bps with this device below each Linux and Windows Vista. For use below Windows the supplied driver was needed for support and has triggered no difficulties. None. This item has performed nicely each and every time I've utilised it. When connecting to a different PC be sure to use a null serial cable or the connection won't function. You can attach a F-F null modem cable to the end of this device if necessary for this sort of use.

Plugged it in and transferred Routes created with Google maps to Garmin.Linux Fedora 9, Garmin eTrex (running and biking). None

Comment:
This worked excellent right out of the package. I use it for various devices on my PC None Was shipped rapidly had it in 2 days

Comment:
Works effortlessly on both Windows XP and Vista. Use it for some esoteric things like kernel debugging and even connecting to alarm program panels. Works fine. Whatever happened to beige?

Comment:
It just works none I had to use it to connect to the management port on my Cisco 678 DSL router to configure it. No complaints...

Comment:
Install the Drivers and plug it in. 64-Bit drivers readily available on web page. One employee used 32-bit Windows XP drivers, I the 64-Bit Windows Drivers, both worked. none For those with notebooks with out serial ports and old equipment in will need of a serial connection, your search is over.

Comment:
Easy, straightforward product. Works as it should. You need to click around on the MD to come across the right dirver install directory -- takes a a few extra seconds to figure out. Shipped and arrived as expected and solved a huge issue, i.e., what to do with a legacy DB-9 money register. . . .

Comment:
inexpensive and works as advertised. I utilized it to connect Smarthome PLM (serial) to USB port on my control PC (laptop). Worked best with no concerns. Not actually a con, but need to appear in hardware Manager to see what port quantity was assigned to the serial port.

Comment:
CostWorks fantastic in all versions of Windows.Applied ᡪ of these over the years with excellent achievement. The latest batch of these are not working. Driver initialization failure.The packaging has changed with this new batch.Old or new drivers don't appear to matter.Very same problem on XP and 7. Uses the Prolific PL-2303 driversNote: Drivers are on the Mini-CD "hidden" in the folded cardboard cover.

Comment:
pretty blue color. (faint praise) The driver installed fine, but devices connected to the serial port just did not connect to the pc.

Comment:
WORKS ON WIN 7 64 BIT SYSTEM

Comment:
this did just what I needed in prviding a simple Serial port for my new mini PC

Comment:
We bought this for multi-platform use. The driver CD was needed for XP, but both Vista and Windows 7 had the drivers pre-loaded with the OS! This cable is much cheaper than other ones on the market and works great for our serial applications!

Comment:
I bought this to connect a Vista PC to a Uniden 898T scanner radio. It functioned flawlessly right out the package. I used the scanner programming software to set up the baud rate and the com port number. The scanner radio website wanted over $100 for this same cable. One of the reviewers complained about the standoffs. They're easily removed by unscrewing them.

Comment:
this may be a good device for xp users but if you have vista64 dont bother. i am sending it back. what makes me mad is that i specifically asked them if it would work on vista64 and they assured me it would. thanks techie!

Comment:
We needed this for programming portable radio's. Our PC's serial ports messed up and we could no longer use them..even after reloading windows. I used this serial to usb adapter.. it worked right away.. no hitches.. very easy.

Comment:
I just received the adapter last night and after trying to install the drivers, I finally decided to look on line. I found the driver for Vista and installed it and my weather station is back in service. It should also be noted the Sabrent web site is confusing trying to find the correct link to download the driver.
