Seems to be a decent cable. I don't trust random USB cables that involve some ICs. Popped apart the usb end and looked up the chip. It's a usb to serial converter. Just as expected. Nothing weird going on.

Works as intended, as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worked with Baofeng radios and CHIRP.
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2020
Used this cable to program Baofeng BF-F8+ radios with CHIRP on my laptop running Windows 7 Home. I had no issues with drivers and didn't need the disc that was included. Truly plug and play! Beware the counterfeit cables being sold here. If it doesn't come in the box with the disc then you are not getting the same cable. I have found the hard way that the ones with BAOFENG written on them ironically tend to be the counterfeit ones. Get this one and if you want to order more make sure to click on buy again so you get the same cable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Failure. After 1 day of use, cable not working.
Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2020
The Tenway Baofeng USB Programming Cable is used to adjust the digital settings on BaoFeng handheld radios.

Using a software called CHIRP, you are able to download the settings from your handheld BaoFeng radio and adjust them to suit your needs. With over 100+ settings available, you will want to type these in on a computer rather than using the small keypad on your radio.

I purchased this cable with the explicit goal of programming several BaoFeng radios using a USB port and the SP & MIC jack on the radio.

7/8/2020:
Plugged cable into USB 3.0 port on Dell Precision T3600 and allowed Windows 7 to complete a driver search online. Cable driver was successfully applied and I began downloading the initial state of a BaoFeng UV-5R+PLUS radio. To do this, you turn off the radio and plug in the two plugs on the end of the cable into the SP MIC port on the right side of the radio. Turn on the radio only after you have CHIRP open and ready to upload or download data. After adjusting many parameters and adding just two channels to my list for some GMRS license band transmissions, I uploaded the configuration images to my first radio. Restarted radio and it had all the settings as I wanted. Repeated the same process on the same computer for a different radio for my father. The only change was I gave the startup screen my father's name. Uploaded the configuration and both radios operated as expected.

7/9/2020:
Connected same cable to a BaoFeng BF-F8HP radio and turned it on with CHIRP open. An error appeared stating that I have lost communications with my radio. I tried using the cable in another USB port on my PC with the proper COM number selected and got the same message. Next, I used the radios from yesterday and got the same error. Next, I used an old Dell laptop and got the same error with both model radios. The TENWAY Cable stopped working and would not work in any other PC that I could find.

I need good solutions and spent extra money and bought the BTECH Programming Cable PC03 FTDI Cable Dual Pin at the same time as this Tenway product. The BTECH PC03 cable has two LED lights and TENWAY does not. BTECH PC03 worked for me and I was able to program my BaoFeng BF-F8HP radio.

Tenway Baofeng USB Programming Cable Win 7/10, 64Bit for Baofeng Radio UV-5R, BF-888S failed after programming two radios. I added a picture to show that I have not damaged the cable.
