Professional USB RS232 FTDI cable converter for wired connection

MANUAL | DRIVER AND SOFTWARE | HOME FTDI | ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT SOFTWARE

This converter allows you to control any RS232 device (home automation systems, cameras, industrial devices) directly from a USB port of a classic PC or a Linux or Windows embedded system. It uses an FTDI chip that ensures maximum stability and compatibility. It is self-powered via the USB port.

This version produced directly by FTDI is the most reliable and professional on the market of USB RS232 converters. As it is produced by the house, the chip is absolutely authentic and 100% operating according to FTDI specifications.

Another advantage is the extreme compactness: it looks like a common USB cable, although at the end of the cable it has the wire connection directly to connect directly to RS232 devices with the optional use of 5V power lines and additional configurable optional signals. .

The converter does not require an external power supply.

The FTDI chip allows in its simplest use to be used as a normal virtual COM port to be compatible with all software for Windows and Linux that use this port for RS232 communications, moreover the chip is freely configurable and customizable in all its parts until you can create your own driver variants or custom devices. FTDI on its website (link above) makes available all the tools to be able to do this in a simple and immediate way, with the possibility of using an advanced management driver without using the virtual COM port to communicate with your application and without the constraint of the legacy. For more information you can contact us.

Compatible with Windows, Linux and 32 and 64 bit mobile and embedded systems.
