I had a need to create a long serial cable that terminates with USB on one end and a microcontroller's TTL serial on the other. It needed to be installed in a fire engine (many of them) so it needed to be easy to route through headliners or floor boards as well as be tough and water resistant.
Using a couple of Sparkfun parts, here's what I came up with:

It's a pretty low-tech solution, but thought this might be useful to someone here who had a similar environment to contend with. So far it has proven to work well.
