## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this to connect the tv to PC?**
A: Generally, no. What are you trying to achieve? RS232 is a legacy very low bitrate interface and would not be useful for a TV.
If you want to connect a TV as monitor, use an HDMI cable.

**Q: Does anyone know where to get the driver for a Mac?**
A: I am sorry, the website may be not allowed here. This DTECH cable used Prolific chip, so, you can download the driver for Mac on Prolific's office website. (Please search "prolific" on google and visit the office website, click Product Application > Smart I/O > USB to UAPT/Serial/Printer; and then click "PL2303 Mac OS X Driver Download")

**Q: What cord works best for converting usb to serial to connect an external monitor to a laptop?**
A: To connect an external monitor (I assume you're asking for the video connection), you need a cable for the connections your laptop and monitor have. It's not going to be a serial cable, or USB. There are USB video cards, but their performance may be disappointing. Your laptop is likely to have either HDMI, or DisplayPort video output. Your monitor also has either one or another (or both).

**Q: Which pl2303 chip is used? for example, pl2303 hxa, xa, hxd, ea, ra, sa, ta, tb, etc? do you use authentic pl chip, not counterfeit chip?**
A: PL2303-RA. 100% authentic Prolific chip. You could please check this link: https://www.amazon.com/Female-Adapter-Chipset-Supports-Windows/dp/B01GA0IZBO?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0This one with FTDI chip, FT232RL

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ RS232 is STILL relavant
*by P***. on July 4, 2025*

I purchased these for a project for work. I need them for the connections and found they worked perfectly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Need to have for Cisco
*by D***K on March 4, 2025*

A must have cable for setup on a Cisco router or switch. There are no issues with these cables, connect one to the Cisco equipment and the other into your computer or laptop. You will need the free software "Putty" to use these. You can't go wrong for the money on these as you will need them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great in OS/2
*by T***G on November 8, 2024*

Driver not needed for use in ArcaOS 5.1 (an updated OS/2 platform). Works fine in Windows 10/11 as well. For Logitech serial mouse and with Kantronic KPC-3+ ham radio TNC.
