Reliable RS485 Connectivity to USB
The FTDI USB to RS485 Serial Cable (1.8m/6ft) provides a reliable connection for devices with RS485 interfaces to USB. It utilizes FTDI's FT232RQ IC for seamless USB to UART conversion, handling all USB signaling and protocols. This cable is designed for fast, simple integration, featuring bare, tinned wire-end connections for versatile application. Integrated Tx and Rx LEDs offer visual traffic indication, while the USB 2.0 full-speed compatibility ensures efficient data transfer. This imported cable is FCC and CE compliant, supporting Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Android operating systems.
This cable supports a maximum UART baud rate of 3Mbaud, making it suitable for various industrial and communication applications. The black, 24AWG, 6-core cable has a diameter of 5mm and a length of 1.8 meters (6 feet). It is USB powered, eliminating the need for external power sources. The FTDIChip ID feature enhances security, and the EEPROM with a user-writable area allows for customization. This imported solution offers robust connectivity for your RS485 communication needs.
For Indian users, this authentic FTDI cable ensures reliable data transfer where local alternatives might lack specific certifications or consistent performance. All customs duties and GST are included in the price, with delivery via ExpressBox tracked shipping. 16-18 days provides an estimated arrival window.
Authentic FTDI Chipset for Reliable RS485
This cable uses FTDI's genuine FT232RQ USB to UART IC, ensuring superior signal integrity and compatibility compared to generic adapters. It's designed for industrial-grade RS485 communication, offering stable performance for critical applications. The integrated electronics, including the RS485 transceiver and traffic LEDs, provide a complete, reliable solution. Sourced from authorized US retailers and partners, it guarantees authenticity for your projects.
Ideal for Industrial & Development Use
This cable is perfect for connecting microcontrollers, industrial equipment, or any device with an RS485 interface to a computer or network.
