: Windows (XP through Windows 11), Linux, and Mac OS. Hardware ID : Often identified as USB\VID_10C4&PID_EA60 .
The is a specialized communication cable used to connect serial-based (RS232) CipherLab barcode scanners and mobile terminals to modern computers via a USB port. It functions as a "Virtual COM" port, allowing legacy software that expects a serial connection to communicate with hardware over USB. Driver Overview cipherlab 308 usb-to-rs232 interface converter driver
Unlike a standard USB mouse or keyboard, which uses HID (Human Interface Device) drivers built into every OS, a serial-to-USB converter requires a dedicated driver to create a "virtual COM port." Windows, macOS, and Linux do not natively understand how to map USB data to legacy serial protocols. The CipherLab 308 driver acts as a translator, creating a bridge like COM3 or /dev/ttyUSB0 . : Windows (XP through Windows 11), Linux, and Mac OS
