Serial Cable Honeywell 52-52562-3-FR Black 2.9 m 9-pin DB-9

The Honeywell 52-52562-3-FR serial cable is a 2.9 m, 9-pin DB-9 lead designed to provide stable, point-to-point serial communication between compatible devices. Constructed with attention to connector fit and cable shielding, this black cable is intended for use where reliable RS-232 style connections are required. Its length and connector type make it suitable for workstations, industrial equipment, and legacy peripherals that use a DB-9 interface.

Advantages

This serial cable delivers consistent signal transmission over the full 2.9 m length and uses a standard 9-pin DB-9 connector for broad device compatibility. The cable’s build emphasizes connector retention and contact reliability while the outer jacket provides basic mechanical protection in typical office and light industrial environments. The neutral black color reduces visual distraction and helps conceal wear from regular handling.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2.9 m
• Connector type: 9-pin DB-9 (male/female as specified by device)
• Color: black
• Intended interface: RS-232 / serial communication
• Construction: shielded cable with molded connector housings

How to use

Connect the DB-9 connector to the serial port of the host device and the corresponding connector to the peripheral; ensure connectors are aligned and seated before tightening any retention screws. Verify serial port settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) in both devices to match communication parameters. For long-term installations, route the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of electromagnetic interference to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling on the cable. When used in environments with potential interference, keep the cable routed separately from power cabling and secure connectors to prevent accidental disconnection. Inspect connectors periodically for corrosion or bent pins and replace the cable if mechanical damage or degraded signal performance is observed.
