USB to RS232/485 serial converter
The USB TO RS232/485 is a reliable serial port converter that uses the original FT232RNL chip to provide a fast, stable and compatible connection to many devices.The module has a built-in self-recovery fuse and a TVS protection circuit, effectively suppressing surge and peak voltages in the circuit to protect against lightning and electrostatic discharge. The compact ABS housing and simple configuration via switches make the unit portable and easy to use.
Ideal for use in industrial RS232 and RS485 serial communication systems. The converter supports automatic transmission and reception direction switching without delay, making it ideal for a variety of industrial applications. Equipped with LEDs to indicate power and data transfer status, as well as a protective circuit to ensure safe and reliable communication. Compatibility with multiple operating systems such as Mac, Linux, Android and Windows further enhances its versatility.
