Cable boot DELOCK D-Sub Housing 9‑pin (male/female) silver plastic, 31×46×16 mm

DELOCK D-Sub Housing 9‑pin is a silver plastic cable boot designed to encase and protect 9‑pin D-Sub (male or female) connectors. With external dimensions of 31 × 46 × 16 mm, this single-piece housing reduces strain on cables, shields the connector from dust and mechanical wear, and simplifies DIY installation and maintenance tasks. Manufactured in Taiwan, it fits standard D-Sub 9 connector shapes and is intended for retrofitting or replacing worn connector covers.

Advantages

The housing provides mechanical protection and strain relief for D-Sub 9 connections while maintaining a compact form factor. Its silver plastic finish offers basic resistance to scratches and contaminants without adding significant bulk. As a single-piece cable boot, it enables quick assembly and reliable retention of both male and female D-Sub connectors, helping to extend cable life and preserve signal integrity.

Suitable for

• Protecting serial or parallel D-Sub 9 connections in industrial and office equipment
• DIY connector repairs and retrofits where original boots are damaged or missing
• Applications requiring a compact, low-profile connector cover
• Prototyping or small-batch cable assembly where quick installation is needed

How to use

Slide the housing over the cable and position it around the D-Sub 9 connector so that the connector shell is fully enclosed. Ensure the connector pins are oriented correctly and that any thumbscrews or fastening hardware are accessible through the housing openings if present. Press the two halves of the housing (or the single-piece shell) into place until it fits securely around the connector body. Check that the cable has proper strain relief and that the connector mates cleanly with its counterpart without excessive force.

Recommendations

For best results, confirm that the D-Sub 9 connector dimensions match the housing profile before final assembly. Avoid exposing the plastic housing to prolonged high temperatures or aggressive solvents. Periodically inspect the housing for wear and replace it if cracks or deformation are detected to maintain connector protection and strain relief.
