## Long description

The MANHATTAN USB-C to Serial (RS232/DB9) Cable with Prolific PL-2303RA chipset provides a direct USB-C to RS232/COM/DB9 connection for modern computers and devices that lack legacy serial ports. This 45 cm male-to-male cable, finished in silver and black and weighing approximately 30 g, converts a USB-C port into a standard DB9 serial interface to connect routers, industrial controllers, POS terminals, instrumentation and other serial peripherals. The cable offers gold-plated contacts and a compact form factor for straightforward, space-saving connectivity.
Advantages
The integrated PL-2303RA chipset ensures broad driver support and stable serial communication with many operating systems. Gold-plated contacts and a rugged connector design improve electrical contact quality and corrosion resistance for reliable long-term use. Its plug-and-play behaviour on supported platforms enables quick connection and use without additional adapters, while the 45 cm length balances reach and cable management in desktop and mobile setups.

How to use
Connect the USB-C end to a host device with a USB-C port and the DB9 end to the serial device requiring RS232 communication. Install or enable the appropriate PL-2303RA drivers for your operating system if not automatically provided; many systems will offer plug-and-play detection. Configure serial port parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits and flow control) in your terminal emulator, configuration software or device management application to match the connected equipment's settings.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, verify driver compatibility with your OS and use short cable runs to reduce signal degradation. Avoid extreme bending near connectors and keep the cable away from high-voltage or high-frequency sources to minimise interference. If communication issues occur, confirm serial settings and try another USB-C port or host device.
