Overview

The UPort® 1200/1400/1600 Series of USB-to-serial converters is the perfect accessory for laptop or workstation computers that do not have a serial port. They are essential for engineers who need to connect different serial devices in the field or separate interface converters for devices without a standard COM port or DB9 connector.

The UPort® 1200/1400/1600 Series converts from USB to RS-232/422/485. All products are compatible with legacy serial devices, and can be used with instrumentation and point-of-sale applications.
