ACT 1.8 metre Serial connection cable 9 D-sub female - 25 pin D-sub male

The ACT 1.8 metre serial connection cable is a 1:1 wired extension cable with molded connectors, featuring a DB25 male connector on one end and a DB9 female connector on the other. The beige, 1.8 m cable is designed for serial communication between devices that use D-sub connectors and provides a straightforward wired connection for data transfer.

Advantages

The cable offers a fixed 1:1 wiring configuration that preserves signal mapping between DB25 and DB9 connectors, and molded connectors improve strain relief and connector durability. Its 1.8 m length gives moderate reach for desktop and equipment-rack setups while maintaining a simple, reliable connection for serial peripherals.

Suitable for

• Connecting serial devices with DB25 and DB9 D-sub interfaces
• Extending or adapting serial ports on PCs, routers, or industrial equipment
• Use in office, laboratory, or light industrial environments where 1.8 m cable length is sufficient

Ensure connectors are aligned and seated fully; secure any thumbscrews if present. Use the cable in environments where the 1.8 m length provides adequate clearance and avoid routing near high-voltage power lines to reduce interference.

Recommendations

Inspect connectors before use and avoid excessive bending near the molded ends. For long-term installations, periodically check connector tightness and cable condition to maintain reliable serial communication.
