Datalogic RS-232 9P Male Coiled Cable 3.6 m

PowerScan8000 / PowerScan7100 RS-232 coiled cable with 9-pin D male connector and 3.6 m (12') reach. The cable provides direct connection and power signal handling for handheld scanners and compatible terminals, with DTR held high and a power-off terminal on pin 9. Designed to reduce tangling and comply with RoHS requirements.

Advantages

The coiled design saves space and reduces cable tangling while extending to 3.6 m when needed. A 9-pin D male connector ensures direct RS-232 connection to host equipment. DTR held high and a dedicated power-off terminal on pin 9 allow controlled power signaling for supported scanners and terminals. RoHS compliance indicates restricted hazardous substances.

Suitable for

• Connecting Datalogic PowerScan8000 and PowerScan7100 scanners to RS-232 serial ports
• Direct connection to SNI (Nixdorf) terminals type 2020, 2040 and Beetle
• Connecting TEC terminals type 5500 and 5600 to COM ports 3 or 4
• Applications requiring a retractable/coiled RS-232 cable to minimize clutter

• Compliance: RoHS

How to use

Connect the 9-pin D male connector to the host serial port and attach the scanner end to the Datalogic PowerScan8000/PowerScan7100 or compatible terminal. Ensure the host COM port configuration matches the device settings (COM port number, baud rate, parity, stop bits) and that the COM port used corresponds to the documented compatibility (COM 3 or 4 for specified TEC terminals). Verify that DTR is held high if the connected device requires power signaling and that pin 9 is wired for power-off control where applicable.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use the cable with devices listed in the compatibility section and configure host serial settings to match the scanner. Avoid excessive stretching beyond the intended length to prevent mechanical stress on the coiled cable. Inspect connectors for damage before use and replace the cable if insulation or contacts are worn.
