Cable Gender Changer DeLOCK 62920

The DeLOCK 62920 cable gender changer converts between RS-232 and RS-422/485 serial interfaces. It connects two DB9 ports directly, allowing communication between devices such as machine controls, fieldbus systems, measuring instruments, computers and printers without requiring an external power supply. The adapter has gold‑plated contacts for reliable conductivity and comes in a black finish.

Advantages

The adapter enables direct coupling of DB9 connections to bridge RS-232 and RS-422/485 devices. Gold‑plated contacts improve signal transmission and resist corrosion. Its compact, passive design does not need an additional power source, simplifying installation and reducing cabling requirements.

Suitable for

• Connecting machine control units to serial fieldbus devices
• Linking measuring instruments to RS-232 or RS-422/485 ports
• Connecting legacy computers or printers with different serial standards
• Use in industrial automation and laboratory setups requiring serial conversion

Key specifications

• Manufacturer: DELOCK
• Model / MPN: 62920
• EAN: 4043619629206
• Interfaces: RS-232 ↔ RS-422/485 (DB9)

How to use

Plug the gender changer into the DB9 serial connectors of the two devices you wish to connect, ensuring correct alignment of the D‑sub shells. Once connected, configure the serial parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) on both devices to match. No external power supply is required; the adapter functions as a passive level converter between the DB9 ports.

Recommendations

Check device documentation for compatible RS‑422/485 wiring and termination requirements. For long cable runs or noisy environments, use shielded serial cables and observe proper termination and grounding to maintain signal integrity.
