## Summary description

This CradlePoint 170873-000 serial-to-USB cable provides a 40 cm connection between a screw-mount USB male and a screw-mount RS-232 female connector. Designed for reliable serial communications between networking devices, modems or legacy equipment and USB hosts. Screw and thumb-screw fittings ensure secure, vibration-resistant connections in rack or field installations.

## Long description

This CradlePoint serial-to-USB cable provides a 40 cm connection between a screw-mount USB Type A (male) and a screw-mount RS-232 D‑sub (female) connector for reliable serial communications. The cable is intended to link networking devices, modems or legacy RS-232 equipment to a USB host port. Screw and thumb‑screw fittings secure the connectors to equipment, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection in rack, vehicle or field installations.
Advantages
The screw and thumb‑screw connector design delivers vibration-resistant, secure connections suited for fixed installations. The compact 40 cm length minimizes cable clutter and signal attenuation for short links between adjacent devices. Physical screw mounting avoids the need for additional fastening accessories and supports reliable data transfer over RS-232 serial lines when connecting to modern USB hosts.
Suitable for
Connecting legacy RS-232 serial devices (modems, consoles, instrumentation) to USB-only hosts
Rack-mounted networking equipment requiring secure serial console access
Vehicle or field installations where vibration and movement could loosen standard connectors
Short point-to-point serial links in wiring closets or server rooms
Key specifications
Connector A: Screw-mount USB Type A, male
Connector B: Screw-mount RS-232 D‑sub, female
Cable length: 40 cm
Mounting: Thumb-screw / screw-fix connectors for secure attachment
Signal type: RS-232 serial to USB data interface
Typical use: Serial console and modem communication
How to use
Plug the screw-mount USB Type A male end into the USB host port and attach the RS-232 female end to the serial device's D‑sub port. Tighten the thumb‑screws to secure both connector interfaces and prevent accidental disconnection. If the connected USB host requires drivers or a virtual COM port adapter, install the appropriate driver software according to the host operating system instructions before initiating serial communication.
Usage recommendations
Use this cable for short, direct connections between adjacent devices; avoid routing it near high-voltage power lines or strong electromagnetic sources to reduce potential interference. Verify driver compatibility for USB-to-serial operation on the host device and confirm RS-232 signal levels match the attached equipment before use.
