We use these [Brainboxes Serial] adapters in our company (industrial automation, lots of serial stuff); they work as a regular COM port, we’ve never had any issues with them.

I’ve been using VX-001 on site (as a PLC / Servo Drive programming port) for years now, with much more success than USB adaptors – so I recommend it to all my clients (which is where this one will be going)! Thanks Brainboxes!
