Pros & Cons
Pros
Great product. Extremely delighted. Some reviews knock the fact that the db9 has nuts, rather than screws. These ones are literally plug and play.
Connected my laptop to my telescope with ease. Some other similar adapters require a driver download which can be a real hassle.

This is very cheaply made. This isn't something that i want to be handling on a daily basis. This cable is incredibly slow.

Works fine, windows recognized it automatically, no driver disc needed.

Thanks in part to regulation and infrastructure circuits as well as management ports used on virtually every equipment system in a co we constantly use these good old rs232c serial interfaces a standard that actually has been around since the early 1960s though not using todays connector types

Try as they might laptop vendors just cannot fully get rid of certain legacy ports
