Help Connecting Robotis CM5 to PC without RS232 Port on PC

Hi!

I require your help regarding a problem I’m encountering to connect my Robotis CM5 Controller to a PC without a RS232 Port.

Robotis had a solution which they called “Robotis USB2 Dynamixel Adaptor” but this is now discontinued.

My question is: Will any USB to RS232 cable or adaptor work to accomplish this? There is also a [SystemBase Multi-1/USB RS232] USB to Serial, Latching USB Cable 0.6m on the RobotShop website but I am not sure if this will work [SystemBase Multi-1/USB RS232] USB to Serial, Latching USB Cable 0.6m - RobotShop

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving!
