Now useless with windows 7/10 64bit
I have this cable for a really long time. It used to work fine but as new driver updates were released, it started to get less and less support for my need. I used to utilize this adapter to program radios, home automation devices and many other utilities like reverse engineer rs232 protocols but now it is useless.

Did Not Work
I purchased this UART converter cable to connect to two new HP 1950 12XGT switches via their console ports. It will not connect from my laptop to either of them, connecting this adapter cable to the serial to RJ45 console cable that came with the devices.
I cannot say that the adapter cable is bad, because it might just be an HP serial cable pinning issue, so I will no...

A good tool
I needed a serial to usb adapter for configuring cisco routers. This product worked great, good instructions for install and configuration. My only hold back is they send a CD with the driver software, luckily I happen to have an older external drive, but it would be a lot easier if there was a link to download the driver. Otherwise good product. Recommended.

old & new
New PC's do not have serial ports. I had a legacy special device that needed serial on a new Windows 10 workstation. This was perfect solution.

Glad these are still available!
Laptops/computers have all swung over to newer/faster USB format; however, there is still a need to connect to devices having the older style DB9 / 25 serial port connection. In my case, I needed to connect my new computers to an external Terminal Node Controller (TNC) for packet communications. These USB/DB9 serial adapters allow me to make the connections.

USB to Serial Adaptor
I'm an electronics system technician and I use this adpator to service more than 350 pieces of equipment. I use this adpater with Vista Business edition and a 3.0 USB port. It works great. I also like the that the length of the cable is longer than my old 2.0 adapter. No cons.

Great product.
I transfer data from 9 pin devices to computer. Cable works with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit as advertised.
Set up was easy. I plugged it in. Device was recognized by computer and was ready to go. This cable does what I expected.

Other adapters did not work, C2G works!
I needed to replace the adapter that went missing. Tried other brands. After multiple downloads and installations, could not get a connection to my controller. I was beginning to think my controller was the problem. C2G installed, loaded drivers, BINGO! Back in business. Now I can change controller settings again for my electric motorcycle. Thanx C2G.
