LINDY 1.5 Meter USB to - Review

When it comes to connecting your computer to a peripheral device via a serial RS232 port, the LINDY 1.5 Meter USB to Serial Adapter 9 Way RS-232 (42855) is a must-have. As someone who has used and reviewed a fair number of USB to serial adapters, I was eager to test out this product from Lindy.

Firstly, the LINDY 1.5 Meter USB to Serial Adapter is incredibly easy to use. It is a "Plug & Play" device, meaning that there is no complicated installation process required. All you need to do is plug the adapter into your computer's USB port, and connect the 9 Way D Male end to your peripheral device. Within seconds, your computer should recognize the device and you should be able to start using it.

Compatibility-wise, this adapter supports both USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices, which is great for those with older peripheral devices that aren't USB 2.0 compliant. Furthermore, the fact that it is powered directly from the USB Bus means that there is no need for an external power supply. This makes it ideal for use on-the-go, as you can easily connect it to your laptop and start using your peripheral devices without having to worry about carrying around an additional power source.

In terms of build quality, the LINDY 1.5 Meter USB to Serial Adapter feels sturdy and well-made. The cable is 1.5 meters long, which provides plenty of flexibility when it comes to setting up your workspace. The connectors, both the 9 Way D Male and USB A Male, fit snugly into their respective ports, and I didn't experience any connection issues during my testing.

One thing to note is that some users have reported compatibility issues with certain peripheral devices. Although I did not personally experience this problem during my testing, it's worth keeping in mind if you have a particularly specific or unique peripheral device that you plan on connecting to your computer.

In terms of customer feedback, the LINDY 1.5 Meter USB to Serial Adapter has a solid 4.3 out of 5 stars rating, based on 222 customer reviews. The majority of users praise the adapter for its ease of use and compatibility with a wide variety of devices. Some users have noted that it works particularly well with legacy equipment, making it a great choice for those who need to connect older devices to their modern computers.

Overall, I would highly recommend the LINDY 1.5 Meter USB to Serial Adapter 9 Way RS-232 (42855) to anyone in need of a reliable and easy-to-use adapter for connecting their computer to peripheral devices via a serial RS232 port. With its sturdy build quality, flexible cable length, and "Plug & Play" functionality, it's a great investment for anyone who regularly works with peripheral devices. Just keep in mind its compatibility limitations, and you should be good to go.
