Tripp Lite Keyspan High Speed USB-C to Serial Adapter DB9 RS232 Cable, 3 Feet / 0.91 Meters
Modern laptops drop legacy ports, but serial gear in utility rooms and telecom racks still needs a direct line. We built this Keyspan adapter to bridge that gap over a USB-C jack. It handles serial signals without requiring external power blocks or awkward bench wiring.

How this one is built
Serial interface
The adapter communicates directly with serial modems, industrial controls and legacy gear. Full hardware and software flow control keeps traffic orderly across the connection.
Detachable link cable
A detachable USB-C lead comes in the package and handles the connection from your computer. You can swap in longer USB-C cabling if the job calls for extra reach.
Fast data throughput
Signal processing inside the unit doubles the typical throughput of an older computer serial port. That keeps diagnostic polling and configuration scripts moving along without lag.
Field installation
Plug the lead into your machine and attach the DB connector to the terminal. The unit needs no separate power brick, drawing everything it requires straight from the host bus.
