Description
Specifications

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

Features

Adopts original FT232RNL chip, fast communicating, 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 self-recovery 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.
Onboard 120R terminal resistor on the RS485 interface, enabled/disabled via switch.
3x LEDs for indicating the power and transceiver status.
ABS case design, small in size, easy to use, portable and cost-effective.
