Serial Cable DeLOCK 86576 Black 5 m RS-232 Sub-D9

The DeLOCK 86576 Black 5 m RS-232 Sub-D9 serial cable provides a 5-meter flexible connection for devices with RS-232 Sub-D9 interfaces. Designed for point-to-point serial communication, the cable supports standard RS-232 signal lines and is constructed with a molded connector housing in black for consistent mechanical fit and strain relief. Its length enables placement of devices at a distance while maintaining a single-cable connection for data transmission and control signals.

Advantages

This RS-232 Sub-D9 cable offers straightforward connectivity between serial devices without the need for converters. The 5 m length balances reach and signal integrity for typical serial communication scenarios. Molded connectors reduce the risk of pin damage and provide secure mating. The cable’s insulation and conductor arrangement are designed to maintain stable data transfer under normal environmental conditions.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, industrial controllers, or measurement instruments with RS-232 Sub-D9 ports
• Serial console access for routers, switches and network equipment
• Point-to-point data transfer between embedded systems and peripherals
• Laboratory setups and test benches requiring a reliable serial link

Key specifications

• Connector type: Sub-D9 (9-pin D-Sub) serial connectors on both ends
• Cable length: 5 meters
• Color: Black
• Signal standard: RS-232 serial communication
• Construction: Molded connector housings with strain relief

How to use

Align the Sub-D9 connectors with the device ports and secure the screws to ensure a stable mechanical connection. Use the cable to connect the serial ports of the two devices, configure the communication parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) on both ends according to the equipment requirements, and confirm the link through the device interface or terminal software. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends to preserve connector integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable away from high-voltage power lines and strong electromagnetic interference sources. Keep cable length within the specified 5 m to reduce potential signal degradation in RS-232 links, and check connectors periodically for secure fastening. If longer runs or noisy environments are required, consider using signal conditioning equipment or differential converters designed for extended serial communications.
