I recommend this USB to Serial adapter and then you can use the correct 9 pin to 8 pin serial cable for the MicroLogix.

Am I going to need a console cable/adapter in order to set it up and configure, or will I be able to just ssh in and do everything?

You want a console cable, or better yet: two console cables.

This is a good product:

The two units I see consistently good performance with are:

TrippLite Keyspan

TRENDnet TU-S9

The Keyspan uses a somewhat unique Texas Instruments chipset while the Trendnet uses a Prolific chipset.

I hear lots of people complain about Prolific chips and fawn over FTDI chips, but I've never had a noteworthy issue with a Prolific chip device.

I've never used this one, but if you want an FTDI adapter this one should be good:

I've always went with this and it's never failed.

Tripp Lite USA-19HS

With a standard cisco blue rollover cable you can find in any cisco box.
