Overview

USB TO RS232/485 is a USB to RS232/485 non-isolated serial port converter, featuring the original FT232RNL for improved stability and compatibility. It comes with a built-in self-recovering fuse, TVS protection circuit, etc. USB TO RS232/485 offers simple operation, zero-delay automatic transmission and reception conversion, and boasts characteristics such as fast, stable, reliable, and safe communication.

Features

Onboard Original FT232RNL chip. Fast communication, stable and reliable, better compatibility.
Onboard TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor), effectively suppresses surge voltage and transient spike voltage in the circuit, lightning-proof & anti-electrostatic.
Onboard resettable fuse and protection diodes, ensure the current/voltage stable outputs, provide over-current/over-voltage proof, and improve shockproof performance.
Onboard RS232/485 communication switching circuit, configured by switch.
Integrates optional RS485 output terminal 120R resistor, enabled/disabled via a switch.
3x LEDs for indicating the power and transceiver status.
ABS case design, small in size, easy to use, portable and cost-effective
