StarTech.com Adapters and Converters

An adapter joins two different connectors, so equipment with mismatched ports can work together. StarTech.com makes adapters between USB, DVI, VGA, audio and many other connector types, USB to RS232 serial cables for older equipment, and card reader adapters.

How to choose

Write down the connector on each device, including gender (male or female), and choose an adapter that matches both ends.
Check whether the adapter only changes the connector shape or also converts the signal. Signal conversion, such as USB to RS232 serial, needs a converter inside.
For USB to serial cables, confirm driver support for your operating system.
Check the data speed or resolution you need, because some adapters limit it.
Choose a short adapter cable where a rigid adapter would put strain on the port.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an adapter and a converter?

An adapter changes the connector shape. A converter also changes the type of signal, for example from USB to RS232 serial.

Can I connect old serial equipment to a modern laptop?

Yes. A USB to RS232 serial cable adds a serial port to a laptop that has none.

Will an adapter change the speed of my connection?

The connection runs at the speed of the slowest part, so check the specification of the adapter as well as both devices.
