I guess you would say knock off.. It comes from a company that deals with them but yet has Ross tech on the sticker label... And pulls up as Ross tech on nefmoto devices...

Won't work if it is CH340 based (many knockoffs are). Please read the stickies.

I've had issues with just using the genuine ross-tech cable before any other ftdi based on a given pc.  It won't install the ftdi driver correctly/at all, and then you'll get the "can't open fdti driver" error.  The driver executable installer might work it these cases, but what I do that always works for me is just plug in a generic ftdi cable, which will install the driver, and then the ross tech cable will begin working with applications like nefmoto/me7logger.
