DeLOCK USB 2.0 naar serieel RS-232 adapter 50 cm FTDI zwart

The DeLOCK USB 2.0 to serial RS-232 adapter with a 50 cm cable and USB Type-A connector converts a computer USB port into a single RS-232 serial interface. The compact adapter provides a reliable connection for meters, POS systems, printers, modems, IoT devices and other serial equipment, enabling data transfer between legacy devices and modern PCs.

Advantages

The adapter uses an FTDI-based USB-to-serial chipset for stable communication and broad driver support. Its small RS-232 plug (39.0 x 33.0 x 14.7 mm) and 0.5 m cable length allow easy handling and convenient placement near devices, cable glands or patch panels. The USB Type-A plug ensures compatibility with standard computer ports and requires no additional power supply.

Suitable for

• Connecting meters and measurement instruments to a PC
• Point-of-sale (POS) systems and receipt printers
• External modems and serial network equipment
• IoT devices and embedded systems with RS-232 interfaces

Recommendations

Use the adapter for short-distance serial connections up to the practical length of the 0.5 m cable; for longer runs, consider a longer USB-to-serial solution or remote serial extenders. Ensure correct serial settings and secure physical connections to avoid communication errors.
