UGREEN 60813

3 m USB-A to RJ45 Serial Console Cable with FTDI

Overview

UGREEN 60813 is a 3 m USB 2.0 to RJ45 serial console cable for configuring compatible routers, managed switches, firewalls and other network appliances through their dedicated CONSOLE port. A built-in FTDI USB-to-serial chipset replaces the legacy DB9 serial interface on a computer, while the 8P8C plug carries serial control signals to the appliance. It is an administration cable—not an Ethernet adapter, LAN cable or internet connection.

Serial console cable—not Ethernet

The RJ45-shaped plug carries serial console signals using the documented DTE pinout. It must connect to a compatible RJ45 CONSOLE port, never a LAN, WAN, PoE or ordinary Ethernet socket. It does not add wired internet or behave like a USB network adapter.

Key features

Integrated FTDI chipset for USB-to-serial conversion and broad operating-system support.
3 m / 10 ft flat cable provides reach between a service laptop and rack equipment.
RJ45 DTE console pinout documented as RTS, DTR, TXD, GND, GND, RXD, DSR and CTS across pins 1–8.
ESD protection is built into the conversion design.
Nickel-plated USB-A connector and latched 8P8C RJ45 plug.
Compatibility references console ports on Cisco, Ubiquiti, Juniper, Fortigate, MikroTik, Huawei and HP ProCurve equipment.

UGREEN 60813 RJ45 serial console pinout diagram — **SKU 60813:** The exact pinout must match the target device. An RJ45-shaped socket alone does not prove electrical compatibility.

Setup and usability guidance

1

Confirm that the appliance has an RJ45 serial CONSOLE port and that its pinout matches the documented DTE mapping.

2

Connect USB-A to the computer. Check Device Manager, System Information or the relevant device list for an FTDI serial port.

3

If the operating system does not load a driver automatically, install a trusted FTDI driver appropriate to that OS and version.

4

Connect the RJ45 plug to the appliance’s CONSOLE port—not a LAN/WAN Ethernet port.

5

Open a terminal program and set baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits and flow control exactly as specified by the equipment manufacturer.

UGREEN 60813 Windows macOS and Linux compatibility artwork — **SKU 60813:** Current operating systems may load a driver automatically; older or restricted systems can still require the appropriate trusted FTDI driver.

Compatible devices and systems

1

Designed for Windows, macOS and Linux computers with USB-A and compatible RJ45 serial console ports.

2

UGREEN names Cisco, Ubiquiti, Juniper, Fortigate, MikroTik, Huawei and HP ProCurve as application examples, but vendor name alone is not enough: verify the exact appliance port, pinout and serial settings.

3

A USB-C-only computer needs a suitable data-capable USB-C to USB-A adapter.

UGREEN 60813 USB host to router switch and controller console-port map — **SKU 60813:** The host side connects to a computer; the RJ45 side is for a compatible serial console port on supported network equipment.

Real-world performance and planning

A working console session depends on four layers: a recognised FTDI serial device, the correct COM/tty port, terminal settings that match the appliance and a console pinout compatible with this cable. A blank terminal can therefore result from the wrong port or baud rate even when the cable is connected correctly.

The three-metre flat lead is useful around a rack, but it should be routed away from power connectors, fan intakes, closing rack doors and floor traffic. Serial console is a low-speed management connection for text commands, boot messages and recovery; it is not intended to carry Ethernet frames or bulk network data.

UGREEN 60813 FTDI serial interface and ESD protection artwork — **SKU 60813:** The integrated FTDI interface converts USB to serial-console signalling; it does not turn the RJ45 plug into Ethernet.

What this product does

Creates a local serial COM/tty interface through an FTDI chipset.
Connects that serial interface to a matching RJ45 console port.
Allows terminal access for setup, diagnostics and recovery supported by the appliance.
Provides 3 m of service reach and a retention clip at the console end.

UGREEN 60813 direct laptop-to-network-device console connection — **SKU 60813:** The cable replaces a separate USB-to-serial adapter plus console lead for compatible RJ45 serial-console equipment.

What this product does not do

It does not carry Ethernet frames, provide internet access or add an RJ45 network card.
It does not connect to every port that happens to use an RJ45-shaped socket.
It does not configure equipment automatically; the user still needs terminal software, credentials and correct serial settings.
It is not a DB9 cable and does not provide a physical DB9 connector.
It does not bypass device security, encryption or administrator authentication.

What to do

Read the appliance manual for pinout and console settings before connection.
Use the operating system’s detected COM or tty device in the terminal application.
Keep a record of known-good serial settings for each equipment family.
Release the RJ45 locking tab before removal and coil the flat cable without sharp folds.

What not to do

Do not plug the RJ45 end into a live Ethernet LAN or PoE port merely because it fits.
Do not download unverified drivers from random third-party sites.
Do not change production equipment settings without a backup and approved procedure.
Do not assume plug-and-play means the terminal’s baud rate and flow control configure themselves.

Check before buying

1

Confirm the appliance explicitly has an RJ45 serial CONSOLE port with a compatible pinout.

2

Computer side is USB-A; a USB-C-only computer needs a reliable data-capable adapter.

3

Obtain the correct FTDI driver only when the operating system does not load one automatically.

4

Know the appliance's baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits and flow-control settings before troubleshooting.

Warnings and limitations

The RJ45 connector uses serial-console wiring, not Ethernet. A wrong port can prevent operation and may risk equipment damage.
UGREEN states automatic driver support for Windows 8/10 and macOS in its listing, but driver availability varies by current OS release. Confirm that the FTDI device enumerates before field work.
Different network vendors—and sometimes models from the same vendor—can use different console pinouts or USB console ports. Verify exact model documentation.
Serial access can change boot, security and network settings. Use authorized credentials and follow the equipment owner’s change-control process.

Product-specific FAQ

Is this an Ethernet adapter?

No. It is a USB-to-serial console cable. The RJ45-shaped end carries console signals, not Ethernet network traffic.

Can I plug it into any RJ45 port?

No. Use only a compatible serial CONSOLE port whose pinout matches this cable.

Do I need a driver?

Windows, macOS or Linux may load an FTDI driver automatically, but behavior depends on OS version. Install only a trusted FTDI driver if required.

What terminal settings should I use?

Use the baud rate, data bits, parity, stop bits and flow control published for the exact network appliance. The cable does not choose them.

Does it work with Cisco devices?

UGREEN lists Cisco as an application example, but verify the exact Cisco model’s RJ45 console pinout and settings before connection.

Can I use it with a USB-C laptop?

Yes only through a data-capable USB-C to USB-A adapter, which is not included.

Why is no COM port visible?

Check the USB port, driver, operating-system device list and any adapter. Try another known-good USB port before troubleshooting the appliance.

Can it power the router or switch?

No. It provides a communications interface only; the network appliance needs its own power.

Is 3 m too long for console access?

The product is designed at 3 m. Route it away from hazards and avoid tight folds or heavy electrical interference.

Does it bypass a device password?

No. Normal security controls and credentials still apply; use it only on equipment you are authorized to administer.

Why does the terminal window stay blank?

Confirm the RJ45 plug is in the CONSOLE port, select the FTDI COM/tty device, press Enter if the appliance requires it and match the manufacturer's serial settings. Reconnect after driver installation and capture boot output to verify activity.

Can I plug this into a router's LAN port?

No. A LAN port carries Ethernet and is electrically/protocol-wise different from an RJ45 serial console port. Use only the appliance's labelled CONSOLE connection with a compatible pinout.
