StarTechs USB to RS232, RS422, RS485 Serial Adapter - ICUSB2324852 The serial converter from StarTech utilises COM (communication) retention between USB port and converter to save settings for the device. This means theres no need to remember which port you previously plugged into the next time you attach the adapter. Even better, the converter enables users to operate both ports simultaneously with different cables and mixed protocols, or rules. An example of this would be where an RS232 connector is attached to port 1 and an RS485 is connected to port 2, as well as numerous other combinations.Port 1 utilises a DB9 (9-pin) female connection type and port 2 uses a terminal block, where wires are clamped down using screws for a secure connection. Between the 2 ports combined, they allow every type of serial device to be connected; RS232, RS422, and RS485 included. The connector features dip-switch controls to configure the flow of electricity to certain ports, while keeping software requirements to a minimum. StarTechs converter is suitable for an office or industrial environment as it comes with a wall mounting bracket for simple and convenient installation right out of the box. The adapter is also powered by the USB connection to reduce the amount of wiring in the workplace. There is the option for an external power adapter should your device need power beyond what the host connection can provide.The USB connection is backwards compatible from version 1.1, allowing users to save on upgrading costs and continue using legacy cables. This part of the converter includes a hard-wearing screw-lock to make sure cables arent disconnected unexpectedly.
