converter that allows Centronics and RS-232 devices to communicate with each other. The unit is reversible enabling you to convert from serial to parallel or parallel to serial. Additionally, it also provides a DB-25 RS-232C (DCE) compatible connector, and a C-36 Centronics connector. The serial baud rate is from 1.2 to 115.2 kbps (selectable by DIP Switch). The unit supports both hardware and software (XON/XOFF) handshaking.
RS-232 signals to RS-422/RS-485 signals (and vice versa), thus permitting the creation of reliable long distance communication systems using standard computer hardware.IC485AI provides point-to-point, multidrop, and simplex operations over 4000 feet. Designed with built-in optocouplers for exceptional signal isolation, plus transformers for excellent power isolation, this extremely reliable isolated converter enhances the quality of the data communication. At the same time, it protects your equipment from electrical surges of up to 2000 Volts.
Centronics and RS-232 devices to communicate with each other via serial to parallel or parallel to serial conversion. Simple DIP Switch settings establish the flow direction, serial transfer parameters, etc. The serial baud rate can be set from 1200 to 115200 bps, with support for both hardware and software (XON/XOFF) handshaking. The parallel interface speed is 92.16 KBps. The SXP500 provides a DB-9 RS-232C (DCE) compatible connector attached to a 5.91 ft cable at one end, and a C-36 Centronics connector integrated on the unit body. This design allows the serial and parallel devices to be connected directly (provided they are located close enough to each other), without the need for additional cables.
RS-232 serial connection with your computer, letting you free up your existing serial port. Users have the capability to utilize the adapter with serial port interface in an easy-to-use environment. The adapter is designed for connections to Cellular phone, PDA, digital cameras, modems, or ISDN terminal adapters through your USB port with over 500 kbps data transfer rate. Installation is easy. Simply plug a serial device into the UC-232A adapter and plug the USB port into the computer. No IRQs are needed so there are no IRQ or Com port conflicts.
Plug-n-Play connection for use with computers, notebooks, and hand held computing devices that support USB. The PDA/USB serial adapter has a standard type A USB plug. This USB PDA/serial adapter provides PDAs, digital cameras, modems, and ISDN terminal adapters with high quality serial connections at a data transfer rate of over 230Kbps. This makes the USB interface transparent to serial peripherals, allowing them to easily interface with USB computers. This eliminates the setup hassle found with traditional serial port connections. This device also supports energy saving suspend and resume operations.

Manufacturer's product description
Universal Serial Bus (USB) port technology has emerged in response to the proliferation of external peripheral devices (scanners, digital cameras, removable drives, etc.), that are increasingly being connected to the latest generation of PCs. USB behaves in a similar fashion to conventional bus ports (i.e., serial, parallel, PS/2), but since it does not require any IRQs, more devices can be attached to the system, and the problem of IRQ conflict is eliminated. The UC-232A USB Serial Adapter provides an external plug-and-play RS-232 serial connection with your computer, letting you free up your existing serial port. Users have the capability to utilize the adapter with serial port interface in an easy-to-use environment, The adapter is designed for connections to Cellular phone, PDA, digital cameras, modems, or ISDN terminal adapters through your USB port with over 500 kbps data transfer rate. Installation is easy. Simply plug a serial device into the UC-232A adapter and plug the USB port into the computer. No IRQs are needed so there are no IRQ or Com port conflicts.
