USB/RS485 interface cable for Schneider PLC programming,2.5 meters,with master/slave switch,connect the TER and AUX port of PLC,the largest communication distance of up to 2 kilometers.
Not made by Schneider,OEM product as the replacement.
Not isolated,so it doesn't support hot plug,if need isolated cable,pls choose TSXPCX3030+,you can click the following website for TSXPCX3030+:

Introduction
TSXPCX3030 programming cable simulate USB port as traditional serial port (usually COM3), which enables existing programming software to communicate through simulated traditional port and PLC devices.
TSXPCX3030 is used for communication between Modicon TSX series PLC and PC with USB port.
TSXPCX3030 supports TSX Premium(57),TSX Micro(37),TSX Nano(07),TSX Naza(08) and Twido.
TSXPCX3030 programming cable contains a Master/Slave switch which is used to select different working mode instead of PLC controlling RS485.Data sending and receiving is switched automatically,so the cable can be used for multi-station and point-to-point communication.
The TER port of TSX series PLC has a DPT signal which is used to distinguish the working mode of the port.If the DPT signal is high level,then the TER port is under Uni-Telway Master mode which is a requirement for PLC programming.If DPT signal is low level,then the TER port working mode is determined by the PLC.

Features and technological index:
● USB bus-powered, with current consumption of 50 mA
● baud rate: 300 bps ~ 1Mbps automatically adaptive.
● apply to the TSX Premium, Micro, Naza, Nano and Twido
● each PC only supports a TSXPCX3030 cable
● Length: 2.5 meters, colors: black
Usage:
TSXPCX3030 needs to install USB device drivers at first. And to communicate with PLC needs the latest version of the Uni-Telway or MODBUS driver. The Uni-Telway version which can support TSXPCX3030:
Win2K/XP V1.6
WinNT4/95/98/Me/DOS do not support
The MODBUS version which can support fTSXPCX3030:
Win2K/XP V1.1
WinNT4/95/98/Me/DOS do not support
These drivers are usually included in the programming software on CD-ROM And for the specific installation steps, please refer to the instruction files on the CD-ROM drivers, and details are not necessarily listed here.
After the installation, icons will appear on the control panel of WINDOWS as follows:
Double-click on the icon, then achieve the settings, XWAY Test, MODBUS Test communications test of the serial ports (COM slogan) which is connected with TSXPCX3030 cables. Then the programming software can be used to complete the normal communication with the PLC.
Long-distance communications:
The largest communications range between the TSXPCX3030 and PLC are up to 2 kilometers (9600 bps),when external plus terminals 120 ohm resistance on the RS485 ports (8 pin Mini DIN Male) of the cable. And a FSACC01 Isolators Box (Schneider's model: TSXPACC01) is need to install at the end of PLC. 0.5 mm2 unshielded twisted pair lines are used for Communications.
When the distance is Over 2,000m, a RS485 repeaters (model: E485GP), can be installed for extending the distance.
Please Note: USB interface cable cannot be extended.
