The AD-UE-112 is a standard 1.8-meter USB-to-RJ45 console cable designed specifically for networking professionals. It serves as a direct bridge between your computer’s USB port and the console port of networking hardware.

Product Overview

This cable eliminates the need for the old-fashioned “DB9 to RJ45” adapter setups. It features an integrated FTDI (Future Technology Devices International) chip, which is the industry standard for stability and driver compatibility across various operating systems.

Key Specifications

• Length: 1.8 meters (approx. 6 feet), providing ample reach from a laptop to a rack-mounted device.

• Connectors: * Side A: USB 2.0 Type-A (Male)

  • Side B: RJ45 (8P8C)

• Chipset: High-performance FTDI FT232R.

• Compatibility: Works with Cisco, Juniper, HP, Dell, Ubiquiti, and TP-Link routers, switches, and firewalls.

Why the AD-UE-112?

1. Plug-and-Play: Most modern operating systems (Windows 10/11, macOS, and Linux) recognize the FTDI chip and install drivers automatically.

2. No Power Required: It draws power directly from the USB port.

3. Reliability: Unlike cheaper generic chips, FTDI prevents “ghost” COM ports and data corruption during critical firmware updates or configuration changes.
