Product details

Add eight ports that support three serial protocols to easily connect serial devices to your computer via USB, with 15 kV ESD protection.

Quickly and easily add additional COM ports to your laptop or desktop PC. This serial USB to RS232/422/485 adapter allows you to connect your serial devices through an external USB port.

Supports multiple serial protocols.

The versatile serial adapter converts a single USB port into eight serial RS232/RS422/RS485 ports, enabling you to connect, monitor, and control a variety of serial devices such as sensors, barcode readers, and LED signage. The adapter supports four operating modes, including RS232, RS422, RS485 4-wire, and 2-wire.

Ideal for harsh environments.

The serial adapter is well-suited to meet the exceptionally high demands in rugged and mission-critical environments, thanks to its robust IP30-rated metal hub enclosure. It offers 15 kV ESD protection, reducing downtime in industrial settings where connections are more susceptible to noise interference and unexpected voltage spikes.

The serial adapter provides flexible mounting options with integrated wall-mounting brackets and a DIN rail mounting kit. Additionally, the adapter features a host connection with screw lock and a USB-B connection with screw lock on the included USB cable to prevent accidental disconnections.

Fast data transfer.

The serial adapter is equipped with high-speed UARTs that deliver fast data transfer rates of up to 921 Kbps in RS232/422/485 operating mode.
