Unfortunately, this issue just appeared again after updating to the latest firmware for Cerbo GX. This time "USB-RS485_Cable" is not detected properly and the product type is listed again as: USB <-> Serial and not FT232R USB UART. #1202

I have a very similar issue but I am using a waveshare 4 channel RS485 converter. Surely a Cerbo can handle a non-victron RS485-USB converter (it does just fine with it for connecting to JK BMS)
