- Reviewed in Canada on November 25, 2022Verified PurchaseI’m using rs422 to connect to a very old legacy system. The other comments where people say this doesn’t work are wrong. It’s their lack of understanding how computers and electronics work.
Firstly, the driver is ftdi. By default this should work plug and play with windows 10+ and Linux. If it doesn’t, just download the correct ftdi driver for your operating system.
Second, people saying the signal is too weak and such… ugh, it’s because they don’t have the gnd connected. I get it, the schematics don’t display a common gnd, so people don’t bother. But you need a common gnd on all electronics. It’s how each device can reference voltage! The schematics didn’t display it because it’s common sense.
- Reviewed in Canada on July 22, 2019Verified PurchaseSweet and simple. Works fine, well made.
The red LED is a little too bright,
- Reviewed in Canada on May 9, 2019Verified PurchaseGood quality and reasonably well-built, though there is no built-in termination resistor. Add a 120-ohm termination resistor across the + and - lines if using this for RS-485. Worked well on Linux (Raspberry Pi) as FTDI drivers are installed by default, but was slightly more difficult on Windows. Windows 7 attempted to use pre-existing serial drivers (which did not support RS-485) instead of using those on the install disk. One of these drivers had to be uninstalled for Windows 7 to recognise and use the FTDI drivers on the disk.
- Reviewed in Canada on May 13, 2023Verified PurchaseWorks very well. The lights are a nice touch. I only used the two data pins. Even with ground not used this works perfectly on my mill. Runs both a VFD and a Pendant using Modbus.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 2, 2020Verified PurchaseBought this cable to connect to PLC equipment and used it to connect various instruments to the laptop in the fields. Very good quality and comes with easy to use driver. Recommended.
- Reviewed in Canada on January 21, 2022Verified PurchaseUsed this with Nidec Control Techniques drive commissioning tool software and a Emerson M701 drive.
Communicated perfectly.
- Reviewed in Canada on November 12, 2018Verified PurchaseWorked well, appreciate the breakout with screw terminals... very handy. The ONLY feature I wish this cable had was RS-232 which would round out the product as my go to cable. Good Buy.
- Reviewed in Canada on August 30, 2022Verified PurchaseTotally not work’s my device

Don B.Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 20255.0 out of 5 stars Great for PTZ camera control and Simple to understand
Verified PurchaseGreat tool! It is allowing me to have RS485 connectivity and control to a PTZ camera and coming off of another device that will control my camera without the manufacturer's utility. Simple to connect and does the job without any errors. I have been using this extensively without fail. I am a fan!!!
Joe O'BrienReviewed in the United States on April 16, 20235.0 out of 5 stars Took a few minutes for all the drivers to settle down and work.
Verified PurchaseI got this particular maker since it was rated as being very compatible. And after waiting a few minutes for Windows 11 to correctly load up all the drivers for Com3 to appear; it does indeed work without fail. Nice clean signaling and now works without fail. Sure, I may make a mistake; but at least I don't have to worry about the communication.
