Worked great - Genuine PL2303GC & Windows 11
Some reviews of this product complained about this DTech USB to TTL Serial cable not working with Windows 11 and/or getting a counterfeit device. I can't really verify whether mine was counterfeit but it showed up as a "Prolific PL2303GC USB Serial COM Port" in Device Manager on Windows 11 immediately, without having to hunt for drivers. I configured Putty to connect via serial, keyed in the COM Port that Device Manager defined the adapter as, connected the ground/TX/RX leads to the appropriate place on the Linksys EA6350v2's board, and gave the router power. Everything worked perfectly and allowed me to do the necessary things over serial to flash FreshTomato onto the router's flash memory. Included with the cable was a small pamphlet serving as documentation as well as a pinout/schematic of what's inside the slightly oversized USB connector.

Works well and was auto detected and configured on my Linux system
I used this cable to connect my Linux Ubuntu box to Jetson Orin Nano serial port pins. The Linux machine identified it as ttyUSB0 and I was able to use it with software control to communicate with my Jetson box.

Outputs 5v on red
Outputs 5v on red. Some devices like this allow an external 5 Volt or 3.3 volt reference to be input to support different TTL levels. The red is definitely 5 volts outThis worked fine with my Raspberry Pi 4 gpio 15,16 uart.Green to 15, white to 16

It is not suitable to read DSMR P1 interface as it does not support common configuration options
It is a common feature of similar cables that they can invert the data signal. Apparently the chip included in this DTECH cable does not support the inversion, or it is not documented. I tried to contact DTECH customer support but I did not get a response. The cable includes a PL-2303 GC chip which may not offer inversion unlike alternative, more expensive products. For certain applications, e.g. reading the P1 interface of a DSMR compatible smart power meter inversion is needed.

Once you get the driver working, it's great.
Works but the driver was a tad difficult to find and install.

Not much use in 2022
When I got this, I didn't know upgrading to Windows 11 was going to make it impossible to use. I guess I should have memorized the description.

Does not work with my Raspberry Pi 4 on MacOS
This cable does not work with my raspberry pi 4 on MacOS. If that's your setup, you should use the cable from Adafruit, which does work.
