ATEN UC232AF USB Type-A RS-232 čierny 1,2 m kábel

The ATEN UC232AF is a USB-A to RS-232 console adapter cable, 1.2 m long, designed to connect modern laptops and PCs without a COM/DB-9 port to serial devices. Built with the FTDI chipset, the cable provides stable serial communication and supports major operating systems including Windows, macOS and Linux, while retaining compatibility with legacy systems. The plug-and-play design enables quick setup without additional configuration.

Advantages

The UC232AF supports USB 2.0 compliant connectivity and provides reliable transmission speeds up to 921.6 Kbps. Robust cable construction improves anti-EMI performance for more consistent signal integrity. Its compact RS-232 and USB Type-A connectors make it suitable for a wide range of serial equipment while remaining easy to carry and install.

Suitable for

• Connecting modems and serial printers
• Configuring network switches and routers via console ports
• Programming or monitoring PLC controllers and industrial equipment
• Point-of-sale (POS) systems and barcode scanners with RS-232 interfaces
• Legacy serial devices that require DB-9/RS-232 communication

How to use

Connect the USB Type-A plug to an available USB port on the computer and attach the RS-232 end to the serial device's DB-9 console or serial port. If the operating system requires drivers, install the FTDI drivers provided by your OS or from the chipset vendor; on many modern systems the adapter is recognized automatically. Open your terminal or serial communication software, select the assigned COM port, set the appropriate baud rate and serial parameters, then start the session.

Recommendations

For stable operation, keep cable runs away from high-power or noisy electrical sources to reduce EMI. Verify correct serial parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) for the connected device and use the FTDI drivers recommended for your operating system when automatic driver installation does not occur.
