James ★★★★★

The FTDI chipset in this little adapter made connecting my mount to the laptop a breeze, no driver hunting or connection drops. It’s tiny but feels solid, and it worked straight out of the box for my telescope control software.

Hannah ★★★★★

Finally, an adapter that actually holds a stable connection with my mount during long imaging sessions. The FTDI chipset makes it instantly recognized on both my Windows 11 laptop and Mac without extra drivers.

Thomas Z. ★★★★★

Finally, a converter that just works with my EQ mount on the first try—the FTDI chipset makes it rock-solid stable. I've had zero connection drops during a whole night of imaging, which is more than I can say for my old generic cable. At this price, it's a no-brainer for anyone using ASCOM.
