I think what he mentioned is just a USB adaptor that allow you to plug in
serial port device to USB bus. There is no other way around because (1)
serial port only support up to 115kbps of speed while USB needs 12mbps (2)
USB is a host based protocol (that means you need a processor behind it
directly to make it work), it is impossible via serial port.
