Eaton Tripp Lite Series 2-Port USB to DB9 Serial FTDI Adapter Cable with COM Retention (M/M), 6 ft. (1.83 m)

The Eaton Corporation U209-006-2 is a versatile 2-port USB to DB9 serial adapter cable designed to connect two RS-232 peripherals to computers, laptops, or tablets with USB-A ports. Featuring a compact six-foot length, it offers easy portability while supporting data transfer speeds up to 225 Kbps, which is twice as fast as standard serial ports. The cable's plug-and-play nature eliminates the need for an external power source, simplifying installation and use across various environments.

Built with a high-quality FTDI FT232RL chipset, the U209-006-2 ensures reliable communication and supports COM port retention. This means it automatically reassigns the same COM port numbers after disconnection or system reboot, reducing configuration hassles. The cable's construction includes premium foil and braid shielding that effectively minimizes EMI and RFI interference, ensuring error-free signal transmission. Molded nickel-plated connectors with gold-plated contacts provide excellent conductivity and durability, while the integral strain relief extends the cable's operational lifespan.

Designed for broad compatibility, this adapter cable works seamlessly with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems. Its flexible PVC jacket makes it easy to install in tight spaces, making it suitable for various professional and personal applications such as connecting modems, digital cameras, PDAs, or ISDN terminals. The package includes the cable, a driver CD, and an owner's manual, backed by a three-year limited warranty for added peace of mind. Whether for industrial, commercial, or hobbyist use, the Eaton U209-006-2 provides a reliable, high-performance solution for serial device connectivity.
