Kabel-genderchanger DeLOCK 66568

The DeLOCK 66568 cable gender changer provides a serial Sub-D15 connector on one side and a 16‑pin terminal block on the other, enabling connection of bare wires to devices with a Sub‑D15 port. The adapter includes a plastic enclosure that protects the printed circuit board from dirt and mechanical damage and a screw-on strain relief to fix the cable in place. The black housing and durable construction make it suitable for a range of technical and hobby applications.

Advantages

This adapter allows direct connection of bare wires to a Sub‑D15 interface via a 16‑pin terminal block, reducing the need for custom cable assemblies. The enclosed plastic housing protects the PCB from contaminants and physical damage. A screw-on strain relief secures the cable and prevents stress on solder joints or terminals. The compact, black design is practical for installation in equipment racks, test rigs or hobby projects.

Suitable for

• Connecting devices with a serial Sub‑D15 port to custom wiring
• Prototyping and test setups where easy access to individual signal lines is needed
• Industrial control panels and hobby electronics such as railway modelling

Key specifications

• Connector 1: serial Sub‑D15
• Connector 2: 16‑pin terminal block for bare wires
• Colour: black
• Enclosure: plastic housing for PCB protection
• Strain relief: screw-on type to secure cable

How to use

Mount the adapter near the device with the Sub‑D15 port and connect the Sub‑D15 plug to the device. Strip the wire ends, insert each conductor into the corresponding terminal on the 16‑pin block and tighten the screws to secure them. Fit the screw-on strain relief around the cable and tighten it to prevent cable movement. Ensure correct pin mapping between the terminal block and the Sub‑D15 connector before powering the system.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, verify wiring connections and pin assignments against the device documentation. Avoid exposing the adapter to excessive moisture or mechanical stress; use within equipment enclosures when required. Periodically check terminal screws and the strain relief for tightness.
