Ruth's sister USB to 5V TTL UART serial cable wire end 1.5m

SKU CH-NEPT-2B088

USB to 5V TTL UART serial cable with wire ends, 1.5m length, FTDI chip

  • FTDI chip provides reliable USB-to-serial conversion
  • 5 m cable length suits bench and enclosure wiring
  • Wire-end termination allows direct connection to custom headers
  • TTL-232R-5V-WE compatibility ensures drop-in replacement for existing designs

USB to 5V TTL UART serial cable

This cable converts a USB port into a 5V TTL-level UART interface using an FTDI chip. It is intended for engineers, hobbyists and technicians who need a direct serial link to microcontrollers, routers or embedded boards for debugging, flashing firmware or console access.

1.5 m wire-end cable for custom connections

The 1.5 m lead terminates in bare wires rather than a fixed connector, so you can solder or crimp the exact pinout your target device requires. It is not suited for users who need a ready-made DB9 or header plug without assembly.

Questions about this item

What does the 232 in the TTL-232R-5V-WE reference mean when the cable is plugged into a real machine?

It identifies the FTDI chip family used in the cable, so the host recognises it as a standard USB-to-UART device without extra drivers.

Which interface standard does the USB end of this cable implement, and what does that cap in practice?

The USB end uses the FTDI chip's native USB interface, which enumerates as a virtual COM port and limits the link to the chip's supported signalling rate.
