  • 5-wire design supports essential RS-232 signals

USB to Serial RS-232 DB-25 Cable

This cable converts a USB port into a serial RS-232 connection with a DB-25 male connector. It uses an FTDI chipset and a straight-through 5-wire layout. The adapter is designed for legacy equipment that still relies on a 25-pin serial interface.

FTDI chipset for reliable driver support

The FTDI chipset provides broad operating-system compatibility and stable communication without requiring proprietary drivers. Buyers who need a DB-9 connector or a null-modem wiring scheme should select a different cable.

Questions about this item

What does the 232 in RS-232 mean once the cable is connected to a machine?

It identifies the electrical signalling standard the FTDI chipset uses to translate USB data into serial voltage levels that legacy equipment expects.

Which interface does the DB-25 connector follow and what does it limit in practice?

The DB-25 male plug follows the RS-232 pinout, so the five wired lines cap the link to basic transmit, receive and ground signals without hardware flow control.
