This cable is exclusively compatible with the RS485 protocol. To find a device that supports both RS485 and RS422, please search for "EZSync2885" or "EZSync201".
USB-RS485 converter cable provides a USB to RS485 serial interface with customized end connectors. Entire USB to RS485 translation protocol handled by the electronics over-molded in the cable.
Featuring an EIA/TIA-485 communication interface with low power consumption, the overmolded FT232R chipset provides a single-chip solution for USB to asynchronous serial data transfer. Compatible with all Windows and Mac operating systems.
The transparent USB connector features visual indicators for power and Tx/Rx data traffic, via LED lights.
Cable dimensions: 6 feet or 1.8m length, 5.0mm diameter. Wire gauge: 6 wires, 0.16mm *7 strands each. For additional technical information, please refer to the datasheet in the "Technical Specification" section of this page.
This cable can potentially be used in all applications that use communication protocols with the same physical layer signals as Modbus, DeviceNet, Profibus, and CANopen, etc.
