A low cost way to convert a USB port into a standard 9 pin COM port so you can plug your old serial devices into your new USB port. It basically adds a COM port to your PC! And, with the 1.8m cable, your new standard DB-9 COM port, which is automatically configured as COM(n) where n is an unused COM port number, can be located on your physical desktop. No more reaching around back! This is a great way to connect your GPS (and other serial things) to that new laptop that has only USB ports. Or add a bunch of COM ports to your PC, no more swapping, re-configuring drivers, and no IRQ problems.
