Cabo serial RS-422/485 para USB 2.0 conector C Exsys EX-2346IS com chip FTDI e proteção contra sobretensão

Exsys EX-2346IS is a USB 2.0 Type-C to Serial RS-422/485 cable that integrates an FTDI USB-to-serial chipset and internal surge protection. It allows connection of industrial equipment, PLCs, modems and measurement instruments to modern USB-C hosts for reliable data transfer and control, simplifying integration of legacy RS-422/485 devices.

Advantages

The cable uses an FTDI chipset for stable USB-to-serial conversion and supports both RS-422 and RS-485 signaling. Built-in surge protection reduces the risk of damage from transients on serial lines. The USB Type-C plug provides a compact, reversible host connection while the cable form factor enables direct connection without external adapters.

Suitable for

• Connecting PLCs and industrial controllers to USB-C computers
• Linking instrumentation and measurement devices with RS-422/485 ports
• Interfacing legacy modems and serial field equipment to modern hosts
• Data logging and serial communication in industrial automation

How to use

Connect the USB Type-C plug to a compatible USB-C host. Attach the RS-422/485 end to the serial device following the device wiring for RS-422 or RS-485 as required. Install any necessary FTDI drivers on the host if they are not already available; most modern operating systems include native FTDI support. Verify serial port settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) in the host application before starting communication.

Recommendations

Use appropriate wiring and termination for RS-422/485 networks, including correct differential pair connections and termination resistors where needed. Avoid exposing the cable to excessive mechanical strain, moisture, or corrosive environments to maintain surge protection effectiveness.
