Does the job. No documentation included or listed on the product page. A bit more expensive than it could have been.

Does the job. 4.5 stars for the lack of provided instructions, necessitating an extra 2 minutes spent searching the internet for the same product on a competitior's website. They were kind enough to detail pinout info. Here's the pin info for those in need: Green: Tx White : Rx Black: GND

The device cane with no specifications. I had to find the pinout for the device from another site. The device itself came fast though. I also found out that from another mirror site, 5 days later, there was a 20% discount; would love to get a discount again, now that I have the device. The part page specifies and references a diagram, but it is not a hyperlink and the diagram is not accessible.

This is such a great table, a really great lovely cable. It has a lovely blue colour and a lovely flexible black lead. Such a great cable . It's a very lovely cable. It's all good I'm going to use it when I build my wall with Mexico. This cable will keep me entertained for many hours, so don't expect to hear me on Twitter for awhile.

Prolific's website seems to be down, any chance you could host the driver so I can try this product, (that I have bought)?

Must have for a Raspberry Pi zero, and easier to use with a Raspberry Pi 3, you don't need to find the IP address when you want to connect to configure your Raspberry Pi. Some notes: Before putting the SD Card in your Raspberry Pi, add this line to the /boot/config.txt file: enable_uart=1 Connect the cable using these pins: Red: 5V Black: GND White: 14 Green: 15 Do not connect the 5V (red) if your Pi is using the power adapter. Done!
