📦 Item Condition:

Genuine Sabrent 6-Foot USB 2.0 to Serial DB9 RS-232 Adapter Cable (Model: CB-FTDI) [image_zrmhdH.png]. This is a pristine New Old Stock (NOS) interface component featuring the industry-preferred FTDI hardware chipset.

The original cardboard retail box was opened strictly to verify contents, inspect the cable, and take photos for this listing [image_8qVsCR.png]. The 6-foot shielded black cable, gold-plated USB lead, thumbscrew DB9 serial head, and underlying terminal pins are completely brand new, zero-hour, and have never been deployed in a working setup [image_8qVsCR.png].

Included Contents (100% Complete Open-Box Kit):

• Sabrent 6-Ft USB to Serial DB9 Cable Module [image_8qVsCR.png]

• Original Software Driver Installation CD-ROM (Sealed in sleeve) [image_8qVsCR.png]

• Original Printed Sabrent Technical Instruction Sheet [image_8qVsCR.png]

• Clear Plastic Storage Staging Blister Tray [image_8qVsCR.png]

• Original Cardboard Retail Box [image_zrmhdH.png]

Please Note Packaging Cosmetic Flaws:

• Sticker Placement: The front face features a green inventory tracking sticker reading "G31" [image_zrmhdH.png].

• Retail Scuff: The front panel has an old orange retail price tag that is partially torn [image_zrmhdH.png].

• The outer cardboard hanger package shows standard light storage shelf rubbing and minor edge wear from long-term warehouse retention [image_d65gqT.png].

✨ Key Features & Operating Value:

• Premium FTDI Processing Engine: Provides rock-solid automated handshake protocols and prevents the connection drops or driver errors common with cheaper chipsets [image_IInltu.png].

• Wide System Emulation Support: Built to interface seamlessly with cellular programming docks, modems, PDAs, CNC machinery, telescopes, and enterprise networking hardware [image_IInltu.png].

• Bus-powered directly from the active USB port—no external line power bricks required [image_IInltu.png].

⚠️ SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY NOTICE — PLEASE READ:

• Operating System Support: This vintage package includes a legacy driver disc supporting Windows 98/Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and legacy Mac OS X environments [image_zrmhdH.png, image_IInltu.png]. Extended modern operating system drivers (Windows 10/11) must be sourced directly from the official FTDI or Sabrent support portals online.

• Buyer Technical Responsibility: Please verify your target device interface uses the standard DB9 9-pin serial pinout arrangement before purchasing [image_zrmhdH.png, image_IInltu.png]. No custom driver integration or hardware programming support is provided.

• Fraud Prevention: To safeguard transactions against component swapping or accessory-skimming return scams, the factory retail UPC block (857161002660), the unique hardware barcode printing (S/N: 30093409602589), and the explicit clear plastic seams of the driver disc wrapper have been thoroughly logged and recorded prior to shipping [image_8qVsCR.png, image_IInltu.png].
