Product ID: ICUSB232PROC
This USB-C to serial adapter lets you connect your USB-C devices to your legacy serial equipment. It converts a
USB-C port on your laptop or computer into an RS232 DB9 serial port with COM port retention. This gives you a
cost-saving and convenient way to connect to serial devices such as point-of-sale terminals, serial modems, industrial
equipment, and a wide variety of other RS232 peripherals.
Connect with ease
The RS232 adapter cable is compatible with Windows, macOS and Linux operating systems, which makes it easy to
integrate into mixed environments.
Built-in convenience
A time-saving and convenient USB/serial solution, the adapter retains assigned serial COM port values in nonvolatile
memory, allowing the same values to automatically be re-assigned to the adapter serial port if disconnected and
reconnected, or disconnected from one USB port and installed in another.
The USB-C serial cable also supports advanced features like remote wake-up and power management control.
The ICUSB232PROC is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
