Serial Connection Cable DeLOCK 64161 USB 2.0 Type-A to RS-232 RJ45 2m Black

The DeLOCK Serial Connection Cable 64161 is a 2.0 m black cable with a USB 2.0 Type-A male connector on one end and an RS-232 RJ45 male connector on the other. Designed for serial communication, it uses an FTDI chipset to provide stable data transfer and broad operating system compatibility, making it suitable for console control and programming of network equipment and other RS-232 compatible devices.

Advantages

The integrated FTDI chipset offers reliable communication and driver support across common operating systems. The 2.0 m length provides flexibility for desktop and rack-mounted setups without excessive cable tension. The combination of USB Type-A and RS-232 RJ45 connectors allows direct console access to routers, switches, access points and other compatible devices from a PC or laptop.

How to use

Connect the USB Type-A plug to an available USB port on your PC or laptop and plug the RS-232 RJ45 connector into the console port of the target device. Install any required FTDI drivers for your operating system if they are not already present. Use terminal software (for example, PuTTY, Tera Term or another serial console program) and configure the correct serial parameters (baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits, flow control) according to the device documentation to establish a console session.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, install the latest FTDI drivers from the chipset manufacturer and verify serial settings required by the target device. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference.
