USB 2.0 to RS232 DB9 Adapter

This Vszerda adapter connects legacy DB9 serial devices to a modern USB 2.0 port. It installs as a standard Windows COM port and supports full RS-232 modem control signals. The cable is powered directly from the USB port, so no external power supply is needed. Gold-plated connectors provide reliable conductivity and durability.

Suits industrial gear and legacy peripherals

It works with CNC machinery, PLC controllers, POS systems, barcode scanners, label printers, cash registers, modems and ISDN terminal adapters. The FTDI chipset supports Windows 11 down to 2000, Linux 2.4 or above, Mac OS X 10.6 and above, OpenBSD 2.9 and later and FreeBSD 4.7 and above. Buyers whose equipment uses USB, Ethernet or other modern interfaces should look at a different adapter.

FTDI chipset drives broad OS support

The industry-leading FTDI chip enables driver compatibility across a wide range of operating systems, including older Windows, Linux, macOS and BSD releases. This single component determines whether the adapter will enumerate correctly on your specific host. Verify that your target OS appears in the supported list before purchasing.
