Overview
The StarTech ICUSB232PROC is a 16-inch USB-C to RS232 serial adapter cable designed to bridge the gap between legacy serial equipment and modern USB-C enabled computers. This adapter is essential for integrating devices like industrial controllers, barcode scanners, or network equipment that rely on RS232 communication into systems lacking native serial ports. Its compact form factor and USB power delivery simplify deployment in environments where space is at a premium.
Compatibility
This adapter is compatible with any USB Type-C enabled host system running Windows, macOS, or Linux. It supports standard RS232 serial communication protocols. Use this adapter to connect to devices requiring DB9 serial ports, such as: point-of-sale terminals, industrial automation equipment, scientific instruments, and network infrastructure devices that utilize serial console access.
Installation Notes
The adapter is powered directly via the USB-C bus, eliminating the need for an external power adapter. It supports data transfer rates up to 921.6 Kbps, ensuring compatibility with most serial devices. The FIFO buffer is 512 bytes, which aids in managing data flow for consistent communication.
