Here is a USB to dual port RS232 serial adapter, as the name says, it provides two standard RS232 ports when connected to a single USB port. After installing the drivers two individual COM ports will appear in your computer's operating system. These two ports can be used individually almost as if they were regular built-in serial COM ports.
This adapter is designed around the PL2303-TA processor chip from Prolific which offers good performance, reliability and several advanced functions including manually adjustable settings.
Drivers are compatible with most newer version operating systems including some older versions; and drivers are updated frequently.
Protection against static electricity and surges up to 15KV gives you reliable data transfers and protects the RS232 to USB adapter and your equipment from damage due to over voltages.
An overall well designed adapter which will work with most serial devices and operating systems. Suitable for general office, commercial and light industrial use where two standard serial RS232 ports are required.
