Where to buy a USB to serial adapter

There is not much need for these cables and so sourcing them can sometimes be difficult. That said, the internet is a place where most items can be sourced. This article will show you where you can source these adapters on the internet for good prices.

Introduction

USB to serial adapters are not a highly required item in the modern computing world. They are used mostly to allow old technology to be plugged into computers that no longer have serial sockets on them. As with many computer peripherals, you may require drivers to make the cable talk to your computer, and if using a Mac, be sure to check if it is compatible before hand.

Where to buy USB to serial cables

Amazon (Amazon.co.uk) This website offers many USB to serial adapters, however, not all of them are directly sold from Amazon. So, be sure to check the feedback of the seller to make sure that you are not buying from someone who may not provide the goods. Play (Play.com) This website also offers a few USB to serial adapters in their range, all from the actual company themselves.
Ebuyer (Ebuyer.com) This company offers the most USB to serial adapters. They have plenty of different choices from various makers at many prices. Customer satisfaction is very good from this company. It may also be worth checking out their eBay store. Their eBay store has many items at reduced prices. This may be as they are at the end of the line or as there may be returns or display items.
Ebay (Ebay.co.uk) Ebay is a great place to look for these kinds of items. There are many eBay companies that will be selling converter cables at cheap prices. There may also be offices selling off items that they no longer need, and although these items may be used, they could be a great way to knock money off the new price. Always be sure to check the seller's feedback to make sure that you are buying from someone with a good reputation. Also, buying from somewhere like America or Honk Kong may take sometime if you live in the UK. As with all of these cables, buying an expensive cable or adapter does not guarantee that you will get a better cable, most of the cheap cables are as good as the more expensive cables.
