Startech ICUSB2322X Product Data Sheet

2 Port Wall Mountable USB to Serial Adapter Hub with COM Retention

StarTech ID: ICUSB2322X

The ICUSB2322X 2 Port Professional Grade USB Serial Adapter converts a single USB port to two RS232 serial
ports allowing you to connect to, monitor and control your serial devices. Rugged metal construction and sturdy
wall-mount brackets provide a robust solution for both harsh industrial environments and simple desktop
installations.

Powered by USB, the device does not require a power outlet for most standard applications. For installations
requiring more power through the RS232 ports, the hub supports connection of an external power adapter (not
included) to the integrated DC jack or terminal block. Once connected, the adapter retains assigned serial COM
port values, allowing the same values to automatically be re-assigned to the ports provided by the adapter in the
event it is disconnected, then re-connected to the host computer.

This innovative Serial adapter offers a professional grade solution for connecting legacy or industrial RS232
serial devices to more modern computers, or computers with unused USB ports – perfect for connecting serial
modems, barcode scanners or any device with serial sync through USB, eliminating the expense of upgrading
serial peripherals for USB compatibility.

Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
