D‑SUB Extension Cable ShiverPeaks AK 405 SC 25‑pin Male/Female, 5 m

The ShiverPeaks D‑SUB Extension Cable AK 405 SC 25‑pin Male/Female, 5 m provides a straightforward solution for extending 25‑pin D‑SUB connections. Designed to preserve standard pin mapping across the full 5‑metre length, the cable supports RS‑232 and parallel D‑SUB interfaces used in a variety of technical setups. The construction focuses on reliable signal transmission and compatibility with devices that require the classic 25‑pin D‑SUB connector format.

Advantages

This 25‑pin extension cable keeps a one‑to‑one pin mapping between the male and female connectors to avoid wiring mismatches and maintain signal integrity. Its 5 m length allows flexible placement of equipment while minimizing the need to reposition devices. The male/female configuration enables direct extension of device cables without additional adapters, and the cable is suitable for professional and industrial environments where standard D‑SUB connectivity is required.

Suitable for

• Extending RS‑232 serial connections between computers and peripherals
• Extending parallel D‑SUB interfaces for legacy printers or instrumentation
• Connecting measurement instruments to recording or control systems
• Linking industrial control devices and panels with standard D‑SUB ports

Key specifications

• Connector configuration: 25‑pin D‑SUB male to 25‑pin D‑SUB female
• Cable length: 5 metres
• Pin mapping: straight‑through (one‑to‑one) wiring
• Intended interfaces: RS‑232 and parallel D‑SUB compatible devices
• Application environment: desktop, laboratory, workshop, and industrial setups

How to use

Connect the male 25‑pin D‑SUB plug of the extension cable to the female port of the device or to an existing D‑SUB cable, and attach the female 25‑pin socket to the mating male connector of the peripheral. Ensure screws or fastening hardware are tightened to secure the connection and prevent intermittent contact. For sensitive equipment, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources and avoid sharp bends to preserve signal quality.

Recommendations

Use this extension cable where a straight‑through 25‑pin connection is required; verify the connected devices expect the same pinout and signal standards. For installations in electrically noisy environments consider additional shielding or shorter cable runs; for long‑term fixed installations, confirm strain relief and connector fastening to reduce mechanical stress.
