Works great. I use it with Linux and Windows.

Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2024

Size: 2.5 FTVerified Purchase

This cable uses the Prolific chipset. I bought two of these several months ago and have used each cable on my Linux and Windows machines without any issues. I don't recall having to install a driver -- it just works with Windows 10 and Linux. In Windows, I run Device Manager and check Ports to see what virtual COM port was selected (the port can be changed through Device Manager as well).

Works out-of-the-box on Windows 10: no need to install external drivers!

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2018

Size: 2.5 FTVerified Purchase

I purchased this unit because my old USB to RS-232 adapter did not work on Windows 10. The reason for this is that the PL-2303 chip used in most of these devices is created by Prolific, and in an attempt to combat the rampant counterfeit clones, Prolific started to add some features to their chips which the standard drivers on Windows 10 (and 8) now look for. If that feature cannot be found, the driver assumes it is dealing with a counterfeit unit and refuses to work, with Windows Device Manager showing a Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port device with a yellow mark, indicating error 10.

Very old units, based on the PL-2303 H, HXA and XA chips, unfortunately got caught in the crossfire, as they simply lack the verification feature that was added to combat counterfeiting. This is the reason my very old unit (of 10+ year) refused to work. While this was annoying, I understand Prolific’s desire to combat unscrupulous 3rd parties selling counterfeit chips, claiming to be originals, down to the stamp on the chip. As such I opted to find a new adapter that was based on current chip versions and ended up purchasing this unit.

When it arrived (in a nice-looking retail box), I was a little weary that it mentioned drivers being available for download, as this is how vendors using counterfeit units may try to get around the standard Windows 10 drivers not working: they offer a replacement driver, possibly based on the older Prolific one that lacked the counterfeit check. Fortunately, my worry was quickly put at easy when hooked up the adapter, as it was instantaneously recognized as a valid device. I ran Prolific’s utility to check the chip version (PL2303_CheckChipVersion_v1006.exe), as it confirmed the Sabrent USB 2.0 to Serial adapter was equipped with a genuine PL-2303 TA chip. Happy joy!

Now for those complaining this unit is “wrong” because it has nuts and not screws: you may be forgetting that this adapter is replacing the DB-9 RS-232 port that used to exist on a computer. Those looked just the same as this adapter, as you were expected to put a male-female serial cable between your PC and the device you were hooking it up to, and those cables has the screws needed to secure both ends. While replacing the nuts with screws may be convenient for those serial devices close enough to the computer that they could plug the adapter straight into it, doing so would make it impossible to securely hook up a configuration with a standard serial cable. An option could be for Sabrent to make the screws removable, which would be the best of both worlds, but their existing design is in no way wrong.

Watch for mounting nut mismatch

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2022

Size: 2.5 FTVerified Purchase

This is the first time I've written poor review for an adapter which electrically functions but mechanically it's a mess. The equipment I need to connect to has a DB9F connector. This adapter has a DB9M connector. So far so good. Only this adapter has a nut instead of a screw. The photo in the listing for this device showed a nut, but the nuts are typically removable, they have a screw end on the opposite side. When I tried to remove the nut it just spun in the housing. It won't come off!! Fortunately I had a dremel tool handy. After breaking 4 cutoff wheels and some melted plastic I finally had something that would mate. This was an unnecessary problem. If the mfr simply used a screw then there would be no problem mating to another connector with a screw, because the screws are designed to have end play to retract out of the way of a nut. If they used neither a screw or a nut it would be no problem. If they used a nut which was removable it would have been no problem. If the connector you're mating to has a nut then don't buy this product, this manufacturer hasn't executed the normal and expected mechanical design effort for compatibility.

One more thing, I was one of the lucky ones who did not need a driver. The device came with a CD but no driver link. Are these people stuck in the 20th century? Why not a download link in the product listing, or on the box, or on the CD? Why do we have to chase them for small stuff like this??

Next time I'll buy from a vendor who cares about their customers by taking care of the details so that we don't have to.

Adapter, um an neueren PCs ohne serielle Schnittstelle einen COM-Port hinzuzufügen

Reviewed in Germany on January 11, 2024

Size: 2.5 FTVerified Purchase

Der Adapter kam in einer Plastikschale daher, aussenrum war ein Karton.
Mit im Lieferumfang ist eine Treiber-CD, welche zumindest bei meinem Laptop, Win10 64Bit,
nicht gebraucht wurde. Die CD-Hülle aus Plastikfolie war schon arg mitgenommen, da dies ein Kauf eines Gebrauchtteils, "fast neu" war. Da ich die CD eh nicht brauche...

Am PC angeschlossen installierte sich der Treiber automatisch.
Nun konnte ich das tun, wofür ich den Adapter gekauft habe, nämlich:

Über eine zusätzliche Software die sogenannten Nummernschalter alter Wählscheibentelefone
auf deren Zuverlässigkeit und Geschwindigkeit zu überprüfen.
Ja, man kann damit feststellen, ob die Wählscheibe eines alten Telefons zu langsam läuft!
Was das Teil sonst noch kann und wofür ich es noch brauche, wir werden sehen!
