Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The only caveat is that you only want to insert or remove the headphone plug when no power is being applied to either the device or the usb adapter.

The voltage switching jumper is a great addition to have and has come in handy more than i would have expected when poking around. Used as an alternative to the hard to find aruba ap-cbl-ser cable.

A bit clunky but does work. Works as advertised. Even the packaging is very high quality and professional.

I bought the adapter to hook up to a serial port uart on a esp32 development board


True ftdi chipset no driver issues just plug it in and it works


Wasted hours trying to use an arduino to flash tosmota on a sonoff device had worked before this worked the first time


I use other ftdi devices including some in our designs and they just work by plugging them in

    Connected next to another usb cable feels bulky or tight

    I spent the good part of a week looking for the apcblser cable from aruba to be able to console into some access points that had issues connecting to my controllers

    After talking with an aruba reseller and an aruba account manager i found that aruba discontinued the apcblser cable

    I was able to troubleshoot and get the 4 questionable access points back into production
