ACT 1,8 m seriële 1:1-aansluitkabel 9-polig D-Sub bus - 9-polig D-Sub bus

The ACT 1.8 metre Serial 1:1 connection cable features 9 pin D-sub female connectors on both ends and is designed for straightforward RS-232 serial data links between compatible devices. At 1.80 m length and finished in an ivory colour, the cable provides a direct, one-to-one wiring pattern for transmit, receive and ground lines. Its molded connector shells and strain-relief design offer mechanical protection during regular installation and movement.

Advantages

This cable delivers a simple, standardized method for establishing serial communications without the need for adapters or wiring changes. The 1:1 pinout preserves signal integrity for legacy equipment, instrumentation, industrial controllers and peripheral devices. Durable connector housings and insulated conductors reduce the risk of intermittent contact and support reliable, long-term use in office, laboratory and light industrial environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to serial peripherals such as modems, printers and barcode scanners
• Linking instrumentation and measurement equipment for data logging
• Interfacing with industrial controllers, PLCs and CNC machines that use RS-232
• Serial console access to network equipment, routers and switches

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.80 metres
• Connector type: 9 pin D-sub female to 9 pin D-sub female
• Pin configuration: 1:1 (straight-through)
• Colour: ivory
• Construction: molded connector shells with strain relief; insulated conductors

How to use

Inspect both device connector ports for debris or damage before connecting. Align each 9 pin D-sub female connector with the corresponding male port on the devices and secure the thumbscrews by hand to ensure a solid mechanical connection. Once the cable is attached, configure serial port settings on both devices (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits and flow control) to matching values before initiating data transfer. For powering or hot-plugging, follow device-specific guidelines to avoid communication errors.

Recommendations

For consistent signal performance, avoid sharp bends near the connectors and keep the cable away from large sources of electromagnetic interference such as unshielded power transformers and high-current wiring. In installations subject to movement or vibration, periodically check connector tightness and inspect for wear; replace the cable if insulation or connector integrity is compromised.
