Cable is Linux and Cisco compatible (if you already have Cisco serial cable)
I bought this to get into the console of an old Cisco router that I'm setting up as a test machine for CCNA studies.I could have bought an official Cisco USB to console cable but I already had a Cisco serial to console cable and I was wondering if this cable would bridge the gap.I was using a PC with Ubuntu 19.10 installed and connected the cable up, grepped dmesg to see what port name it had under Linux ( in my case /dev/ttyUSB0 ) and then connected to my router no problem via the Cisco serial cable.I wrote this review in case anyone was wondering if it was Linux compatible. It is! If you are like me and wonder if it will also work with a Cisco serial cable. It does!

Got something obsolete? Need to use it? Good cable for you!
If you happen to have something with an RS232 connection* and actually need to connect it to something, then this is the cable for you!(*for some inexplicable reason even brand new lab machinery is being built with only these obsolete connectors. I assume when USB eventually becomes obsolete they'll start fitting them...)

It's cheap & it works like a treat
For a start it took less than 2 days to get to the west coast of Ireland during peak Christmas season (impressive Amazon!!)Bought it to update my Celestron nexstar telescope - worked like a charm first time, without any fussVery Happy with this purchase

Fixed my issue
I have an electronic device with RS232 interface and a serial to RS232 cable but no means to connect to laptop, this item allowed the serial cable to be connected to usb port making a software repair possible. I dont know if I'll ever need this adapter again but this adapter and the software repair saved scrapping the device and sourcing a replacement.

Great for this price
Not a lot to say really. Bought this as I needed a usb-serial adapter that would work under Linux and Windows running in a virtual environment.Works flawlessly in both once Windows drivers installed (none needed for Linux, it just works there).
