SABRENT Serial Cable to USB, 9 Pin USB Serial Adapter, DB 9 RS232 Female Converter, For Printers, Servers, Windows Mac [-NOT a display cable-] 0.85m (CB-DB9P)

Used with my rollover serial cable for connecting to Cisco kit.Works well straight out the box and nice quality.Have brought them also for some serial devices for various applications and works a treat.Neat cable and good price.Always good having one of these as a network engineer!

Good , fast delivery

I bought this cable to connect an old handheld personal organiser to a laptop to see if I could retrieve the data from it and it worked (once I had figured how to find the organiser) which was not automatically recognised being so old.Useful! ...

As advertised

I used this particular FTDI Sabrent cable to "flash/update" the firmware of a newish ROTEL TRIBUTE CD11 CD player via it's serial port. It worked well on Windows 10 x64 via USB side once it discovered the cable. I would recommend though to disable anti virus before doing any updates first. Now, why a simple red book CD player requires firmware updates in 2025 is another matter. Two stars off as it's too expensive!.

Worked out the box with Windows (10 and 11) picking up the drivers automatically.The DE9/RS232 plug (with USB chip) is compact enough (only marginally longer than a standard DE9 connector) to fit inside the enclosure I needed it to.Only niggle is that the listing image is a solid black cable (which matched the others in use here), but the product has a dark brown transparent sheath, showing the braided shielding inside.

Unfortunately the drivers (even the latest on the manufacturers website https://sabrent.com/pages/support#Downloads) only mentions up to Catalina 10.15. So had to return the product. Install error is"System Extension BlockedA program tried to load new system extension(s) signed by "ProlificTechnology Inc." that need to be updated by the developer."I believe the issue is more around Apple locking down their operating system, rather than a faulty product. So the manufacturer needs to either update drivers, or instruction, or make it clear on Amazon that not all Mac OS versions are supportedThe product itself felt good quality, so I would imagine it would be great for other operating systems

Tried many cables to speak to an old DVM at work,this was the one that got things working for me.
