FTDI Chip USB to RS232 Serial Converter Cable 5 m Black

FTDI Chip USB-RS232-WE-5000-BT_3.3 is a high-quality USB to RS232 serial UART converter cable designed to facilitate easy connection between USB ports and RS232 serial devices. Featuring the FTDI FT232RQ interface IC internally, this cable efficiently converts USB signals to serial UART communication with a maximum baud rate of 1 Mbps. The cable is 5 meters long and black in color, terminating with tinned wire ends for flexible connectivity options.

The cable complies with CE, RoHS, and FCC standards, ensuring safety and electromagnetic compatibility. It supports UART protocols including 7 or 8 data bits and 1 or 2 stop bits, and includes internal EEPROM to facilitate device configurations. The built-in LED provides convenient traffic monitoring functionality, helping users easily diagnose data transmission and activity status.

Compatible with USB 2.0 full speed and UHCI, OHCI, and EHCI host interfaces, the cable offers robust and low bandwidth consumption for efficient performance. It provides ESD protection and is widely used for various industrial and commercial applications such as upgrading legacy peripherals to USB, interfacing microcontrollers, FPGAs, or PLDs to USB, USB instrumentation OC interface, and industrial control systems.

The Converter Cable package includes only the cable itself, optimally designed for desktop use. It is supported by Microsoft WHQL certified virtual COM port drivers available royalty-free from FTDI for Windows, Apple Mac, and Linux platforms, facilitating easy installation and universal compatibility.

Typical applications include USB to serial RS232 level conversion, upgrading old serial devices to USB, and embedding USB interfacing in custom hardware systems. The USB connector is designed as transparent and the overall cable construction meets high quality and functional standards suitable for professional and industrial use.
