Parallel cable DELOCK 86059, 1 m, 9-pin (DB9) to 9-pin (DB9), black

DELOCK 86059 is a 1 m parallel cable with two 9-pin (DB9) D‑sub connectors, designed for connecting devices that use classic serial/parallel D‑sub 9 interfaces. The cable is supplied as a single black unit and is intended for linking equipment such as routers, modems, industrial controllers or legacy PCs where a DB9-to-DB9 connection is required. The construction uses 22 AWG conductors and a PVC jacket to provide stable signal transmission and mechanical protection over its 1 metre length.

Advantages

The cable provides a direct DB9-to-DB9 connection with male and female D‑sub 9 connectors, reducing the need for adapters. Its 22 AWG wire gauge supports reliable data signalling and the PVC jacket offers durability and insulation in standard installation environments. The one-metre length balances reach and signal integrity for typical equipment-to-equipment connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, modems and network equipment with DB9 ports
• Linking industrial controllers and automation devices with D‑sub 9 interfaces
• Connecting legacy PCs, serial consoles or terminals that use 9‑pin ports
• Short-distance equipment-to-equipment serial or parallel data links

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1 m
• Connector type: 9-pin D‑sub (DB9) male to 9-pin D‑sub (DB9) female
• Wire gauge: 22 AWG
• Cable jacket material: PVC
• Colour: black

How to use

Ensure both devices are powered off before connecting. Align the male and female DB9 connectors and gently insert until the D‑sub housing seats fully; secure any mounting screws if present to ensure a stable connection. Power on the connected devices and configure the communication parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) on both ends as required by the equipment. For industrial installations, route the cable away from high-voltage lines and strong electromagnetic sources to minimise interference.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium-length DB9 connections in controlled environments. Avoid excessive bending or pulling on the connectors, keep the cable away from heat sources, and, when used near motors or high-current conductors, consider additional shielding or routing to reduce potential interference. Periodically inspect connector contacts and the PVC jacket for wear before critical use.
