USB to RS232 DB9 Male Adapter

This USB to RS232 DB9 male serial adapter connects legacy serial equipment such as modems, barcode scanners, CNC controllers, PLCs and POS printers to a modern USB port. It is intended for engineers, technicians and hobbyists who need a reliable COM port for configuration, debugging or data logging. The 10ft cable length provides flexibility for bench or rack mounting. Buyers needing a female DB9 connector or a VGA interface should look elsewhere.

Thermals noise and power

The adapter draws power directly from the USB 2.0 port so no external supply is required and heat output remains negligible during normal operation. Because there are no moving parts the device is completely silent in use. The FTDI chipset supports a 1Mbps data transfer rate while maintaining stable communication across the supported operating systems.

Driver and compatibility bundle

A driver must be downloaded from the official FTDI or Cisco website before first use; the package includes no physical media or pre-loaded software. Once installed the adapter creates a virtual COM port whose baud rate can be adjusted to match the connected device. Supported platforms include Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP, 2000, Linux and Mac OS X 10.6.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 10ft USB to RS232 DB9 male cable with the FTDI chipset, and what step do people often miss?

Plug the USB end into the computer, then download and install the driver from the FTDI or Cisco website before connecting any serial device; skipping the driver install is the step most users miss.

What maintenance or replacement will the 10ft USB to RS232 DB9 male cable need later?

The cable itself has no moving parts and requires no scheduled maintenance; only the USB connector or DB9 pins may wear after many insertions, at which point the whole adapter would be replaced.

What limit appears first on the 10ft USB to RS232 DB9 male cable during sustained use at the 1Mbps transfer rate?

The USB 2.0 interface and FTDI chipset cap continuous throughput at 1Mbps, so sustained transfers cannot exceed that rate regardless of cable length.
