C2G TruLink 5ft USB to DB9 RS-232 Serial Adapter Cable with 230 Kbps Data Transfer, IRQ-Free Operation, and Lifetime Warranty
The C2G 26887 is a 5-foot USB to DB9 serial adapter cable that connects RS-232 serial devices to any USB Type A port on a PC, laptop, or tablet. A male USB Type A connector on one end and a male DB-9 RS-232 serial connector on the other provide a plug-and-play bridge between modern computers and legacy serial peripherals including modems, ISDN terminal adapters, network equipment, digital cameras, and barcode scanners. Data transfers at speeds up to 230 Kbps through the adapter, and the design uses no system IRQs, eliminating resource conflicts when multiple serial devices are connected to the same machine.
The 5-foot length provides working reach for rack-mounted equipment, server consoles, and bench setups where the host PC sits a few feet from the target device, without the excess cable of longer runs. The TruLink product line from C2G (a Legrand brand) is built for reliable serial connectivity across enterprise, IT, and industrial environments where RS-232 equipment remains in active production use. RoHS-compliant construction and a lifetime limited warranty back every cable for long-term deployment confidence.
Where the C2G 26887 USB to DB9 Cable Fits
- Network administrators configuring switches, routers, and firewalls through serial console ports where the 5-foot USB to DB9 cable reaches comfortably between a laptop on a cart and rack-mounted equipment without requiring an extension or docking station
- POS and retail deployments where receipt printers, barcode scanners, or cash drawers use RS-232 serial interfaces where the adapter bridges legacy serial peripherals to current-generation USB-equipped PCs and tablets without replacing hardware that still functions
- Lab, industrial, and manufacturing environments where test instruments, PLCs, or CNC controllers communicate over RS-232 where IRQ-free operation supports multiple serial adapters on a single PC without resource conflicts that interrupt data acquisition or device programming
What the C2G 26887 USB to DB9 Cable Delivers
