USB-RS485-WE-1800-BT is a USB to UART cable with RS485 level UART signals. It incorporates FTDI's FT232RL USB to Serial UART interface chip, which can handle all USB signals and protocols. The cable provides a quick and easy way to connect RS485 interface
devices to USB. It contains a small internal electronics board, using the FT232R encapsulated in a USB connector on one end of the cable. The other end of the cable is a bare tinned wire end connection. The integrated electronics also includes an
RS485 transceiver, receiver and transmitter LEDs, which emit visual signals to indicate cable communication. The USB end of the cable is used for USB power and USB 2.0 full speed compatibility.
UHCI / OHCI / EHCI host controller compatible.
Visual indication of Tx and Rx traffic via LEDs in the transparent USB connector.
X-On / X-Off software handshaking.
Data transfer rates from 300 baud to 3 Mbaud.
Internal EEPROM with user writeable area.
USB-RS485 converter cable provides a USB to RS485 serial interface with customised end connectors.
Entire USB protocol handled by the electronics in the cable.
EIA/TIA-485 communication interface with low power requirements.
USB 2.0 Full Speed compatible.
FTDIs royalty-free VCP allow for communication as a standard emulated COM port and D2XX direct drivers provide DLL application programming interface.
Support for FT232R FTDIChip-ID feature for improved security.
Low USB bandwidth consumption.
-40°C to +85°C operating temperature range.
