Customer Reviews

Easy to install
I wanted to connect my old Garmin 12MAP GPS to my PC using a USB cable. This cable was just what I needed. Installation was easy and it works both under Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Does not work on 64-bit Vista
Just a warning that while this is probably a fine product, it will not work with 64-bit OS. There are no drivers for 64-bit Vista OS for this (or any other serial to USB adapter) yet.

Works well on a Mac
I bought this adapter to use with my Garmin Geko 201 handheld GPS receiver and a Garmin-compatible serial cable and it works well. I did have to download the PL2303 driver [...]because the included drivers on the CD were older and I was running Mac OS X 10.5.2. After installing the new driver and rebooting, I tested it with several programs and was able to successfully transfer data in both directions. The driver disc is a 3" CD and will not load into a slot-loading CDR - which is another reason you may need to download drivers online.
