FastLynx 3.3 allows you to conveniently transfer files, directories, or entire disks from one computer to another via a USB, serial, or parallel cable, or over a network using TCP/IP or Windows named pipes. FastLynx has been used by over 100,000 people worldwide and has won many awards, including PC Magazine's Editor's Choice.

FastLynx 3.3 is the newest version of FastLynx, now including support for fast USB transfers. FastLynx 3.3 is designed for the 32-bit Windows graphical environment (Windows NT 4, 2000, XP, 95, 98, and ME). It also includes a DOS slave program which allows for connecting to DOS or Windows 3.x systems. The 32-bit Windows component supports USB (Windows 98, 2000, or later), serial, parallel, TCP/IP, and Named Pipe transfers. The DOS slave component supports serial and parallel transfers. FastLynx 3.3 is available in an English-only version, and will soon be available in dual-language German/English and Dutch/English versions.

The FastLynx USB bridge cable is a 3-meter (10-foot) long cable that allows for much faster transfers than using parallel or serial cables.
The FastLynx parallel cables are a premium quality, 3-meter (10-foot) long cable. FastLynx versions 3 and 2 use the same cable.
The FastLynx serial cables are a premium quality, 3-meter (10-foot) long cable. They have 25-pin and 9-pin heads at both ends. All FastLynx versions use the same serial cable.
