The only reason I did not give it a 5 star is that I have not tried it on all our Cisco equipment but don't expect any issues. This one works with Cisco 3750's as advertised. It works with our legacy Nortel switches as well. Works with cut and paste as well as updating firmware on Nortel and Cisco using IBM/Lenovo laptops. No issues - and shipping was fast (as usual from Amazon - Thanks)H.
Spend the extra money and get this, it works. I had to edit the registry and change the Spaceball com port from COM1 to COM3.
At first I purchased a cheaper adapter for $10. Even with the supplied disc Windows XP would not recognize it.
I needed to connect my serial Spaceball 5000 to a USB port so I could update my CAD software. Although, at first the Spaceball would not work the supplied software told me that the adapter was "COM3".
After reading the reviews I spent the extra money (there are cheaper ones out there). The software installed easily and when I plugged in the adapter XP recognized both the adapter and the Spaceball.
Voila, it worked great with my CAD software. Also it's cheaper than spending $300 for a new Spaceball.
Worked first time after trying two cheap alternatives from Ebay. Am using with a Concept2 Rowing Machine with a PM2+ Performance Monitor.Would be great if Keyspan had a user entered HCL of tested kit that worked with their adapters.
Installation went without a hitch and it has worked great from the beginning. Perhaps it's a bit more expensive than others, but I'd rather pay more for a trouble free product.
This product is the solution to my old problems connecting to serial devices at work. It performs great, no complains at all. If you want some quality connection, this one should be with you.
