DB9 9‑pin RS232 serial cable — direct data cord available in 11 lengths (0.5 m to 30 m). Plug and play for immediate use with RS232 devices. Key benefits Wide length selection: choose from 0.5 m to 30 m to match desktop, rack, or long-run connections without signal adapters. Three connector options: male-to-male, male-to-female, or female-to-female for compatibility with any DB9 port. Male ends have pins; female ends have sockets. Reliable data transmission: 28 AWG conductors and double-layer shielding reduce interference and maintain stable, fast serial communication. Durable contacts and shells: gold-plated pins for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance; metal connector shells resist wear from repeated insertion and extraction. Simple setup: standard RS232 wiring and plug-and-play operation — no drivers or configuration required for basic serial links. What it does for you Eliminates flaky or intermittent serial links with solid shielding and quality conductors. Simplifies device pairing by offering the exact length and connector gender you need. Extends the life of equipment ports with wear-resistant metal connectors and corrosion‑protected pins. Compatibility and specifications Interface: DB9 (9‑pin) RS232 serial. Connector options: male-to-male, male-to-female, female-to-female. Conductor size: 28 AWG. Shielding: double-layer shielding for EMI/RFI protection. Contacts: gold-plated pins. Cable lengths available: 0.5 m, 1 m, 1.5 m, 2 m, 3 m, 5 m, 7.5 m, 10 m, 15 m, 20 m, 30 m. Common applications Network and telecom: console cables for routers, switches, and server serial ports during configuration and maintenance. Industrial control: reliable connections between PLCs, HMIs, sensors, and motor controllers in factory automation environments. Point-of-sale and instrumentation: link POS terminals, label printers, barcode scanners, GPS receivers, and laboratory instruments to computers or controllers. Ordering guidance Select the cable length that minimizes slack while allowing the required movement or routing. Pick the connector gender that matches the two device ports (male pins vs female sockets) to avoid adapters. Quality and durability Constructed to withstand frequent cable handling and repeated mating cycles. Double-layer shielding and quality 28 AWG conductors help preserve signal integrity over longer runs. Use this DB9 RS232 cable when you need a straightforward, durable, and compatible serial connection for equipment that relies on standard 9‑pin RS232 communication.
