EPT 232R-US-R1 1 Meter USB to Serial Cable 

The EPT 232R-US-R1, provides a simple method of adapting legacy serial devices with RS232 
interfaces to modern USB ports. 

Each EPT 232R-US-R1 adapter contains a small internal electronic circuit board which utilises 
the FTDI FT232R, mounted inside a rugged plastic enclosure capable of withstanding industrial 
temperature ranges. The integrated electronics also include RS232 level shifters and TXD/RXD 
LEDs to provide a visual indication of data traffic through the adapter. 

The Cable incorporates a standard USB-A device connector for connection to an upstream host 
or hub port. RS232-level signals, including modem handshake signals, are available on an 
industry-standard DB9 Male connector. The maximum RS232-level data rate is 1MBaud.
