ShiverPeaks BS14-12044 Serial Cable White 0.1m USB Type-A Mini-DIN 8-pin

The ShiverPeaks BS14-12044 Serial Cable White 0.1m USB Type-A Mini-DIN 8-pin is a compact data cable designed for short-distance connections between devices that use a USB Type-A interface and an 8-pin Mini-DIN port. With a total length of 0.1 m and a slim 3 mm diameter, this white cable is intended for tidy, space-saving installations where a short, reliable link is required for data transfer or device control.

Advantages

This cable provides a direct physical connection with minimal signal path due to its very short length, reducing potential interference for close-proximity devices. The 8-pin Mini-DIN termination supports devices that rely on that connector form factor while the USB Type-A plug offers wide compatibility with host equipment. Its slim profile and white finish make it unobtrusive in compact setups and enable easy routing in constrained spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting devices with 8-pin Mini-DIN ports to hosts with USB Type-A where an adapter-style cable is required
• Short, tidy connections in laboratory equipment, instrumentation or audio-visual racks
• Embedded systems, control panels, or test benches where only minimal cable length is acceptable
• Situations demanding a discreet, low-profile cable route behind furniture or equipment

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB Type-A
• Connector 2: Mini-DIN, 8-pin
• Cable length: 0.1 m
• Color: White
• Cable diameter: 3 mm

How to use

Insert the USB Type-A plug into a compatible USB host port and connect the 8-pin Mini-DIN end to the corresponding device connector. Ensure both devices are powered according to their specifications before establishing the connection. Because the cable is very short, position devices within close proximity to avoid strain at the connector interfaces. If drivers or specific communication settings are required by the connected devices, install and configure them on the host system prior to data exchange.

Recommendations

Use this cable for fixed, short-range links rather than for flexible or frequently moved setups; avoid applying excess bend or tensile force near the connectors. Keep the cable route clear of heat sources and sharp edges, and verify connector orientation before insertion to prevent mechanical damage.
