Sabrent SBT-USC1K Hi-Speed USB 2.0 to Serial DB-9 RS-232 Adapter Cable (Black) Reviews
It works great in Ubuntu Linux, and I was able to use my GPS again. I bought this in order to use my old serial GPS receiver with my newer laptop.
This item allowed me to continue to use my Palm IIIC. Purchased a new laptop which does not have a serial port. Setup was quick and the adapter cable works perfectly.
Only caveat was remembering which serial port it was using. Bought some of these as I needed a serial interface into some equipment and the computers my work was building no longer had these available. Install the driver, plug in the cable, and go. Cable did what I needed it to do and I really can't complain.
As another reviewer pointed out, this item uses the Prolific PL-2303 chip, giving excellent support under Linux and Mac OSX. Not only is it good, it's also very inexpensive. Unlike some other USB to serial adapters (such as those from Cypress), this device correctly implements hardware flow control and sets proper line voltages, ensuring full RS-232 compatibility. Five stars in my book.
This item should be listed as temporarily unavailabe. The listing says it might take an extra day to ship. If I didn't need it now, I wouldn't have ordered it. My confirmation says to expect to wait at least a month.
