Keyspan High Speed USB Serial Adapter ( USA-19HS )

I needed a serial adapter so I could console into routers and switches and this works perfectly, does exactly what I need it to.

The Keyspan adapter is the only brand I've used that has worked falwlessly with the specific devices that I'm using; no comm port errors or other conflicts as with some other brands.

I have tried others. Some work, some don't. This one is a solid performer. It always works under on any platform. This is actually my second purchase and this time I got two.

I ordered this item because it said it supported OSX, and I have an old tablet (a Wacom Artz II 12") that I wanted to use with Table Magic (open source tablet drivers for old Wacom tablets on OSX). I had a different brand/model of adapter for my older GPS, and that worked in a very limited way in Windows, but I could not get that older device to work with this tablet on Windows, Linux, OR OSX.

With this device, I was able to get the tablet working with all three!


Highly recommended.

It should be noted that this product is one of the only products that will allow one to program a Parallax BASIC stamp micro-processor from a Mac. So buy it if you have a BASIC stamp and a mac!
