StarTech 2P6FFC-USB-SERIAL 2-Port USB to Serial Adapter Cable
Overview
The StarTech 2P6FFC-USB-SERIAL is a 13.1 ft (4.0 m) USB 2.0 to dual RS-232 serial adapter cable. It bridges the gap between modern USB ports and legacy serial devices, enabling integration of equipment like barcode scanners, POS terminals, or industrial controllers into systems that lack native serial ports. The inclusion of two serial ports on a single cable simplifies deployments where multiple serial devices need to connect to a single host.
Compatibility
This adapter is compatible with systems running Windows, macOS, and Linux. It utilizes the FTDI FT2232H chipset, ensuring broad compatibility with most serial devices that communicate via the RS-232 protocol. Specific compatible product families include industrial automation equipment, scientific instruments, point-of-sale systems, and security devices requiring serial communication. It is designed to work with devices that require up to a 921.6 Kbps maximum baud rate.
Installation Notes
The adapter offers Level-4 ESD protection (15kV air, 8kV contact) to safeguard connected devices from electrostatic discharge. It supports data bits 7 or 8, stop bits 1 or 2, and multiple parity modes (Even, Odd, None, Space, Mark), allowing for configuration to match diverse serial device requirements. The operating and storage temperature range of -40°C to 80°C ensures reliability in various environmental conditions.
