Serial cable DeLOCK 88239 1.8m DB9 male to DB9 male

The DeLOCK 88239 serial cable 1.8m DB9 male to DB9 male is a straightforward connection cable designed to link devices equipped with standard 9-pin D-sub (DB9) serial ports. At 1.8 meters in length, it provides a practical reach for connecting computers, industrial controllers, modems, and serial peripherals without additional adapters. The cable is intended for reliable point-to-point RS-232 style communications where two DB9 male connectors are required.

Advantages

This serial cable offers a simple, robust solution for connecting DB9-equipped devices. Its fixed 1.8 m length balances flexibility and manageability for desktop and rack environments. The DB9 male-to-male configuration eliminates the need for gender changers when linking devices designed for male connectors. The cable construction is intended to provide consistent electrical connections and everyday durability for serial data transfer tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to serial peripherals such as older modems and serial printers
• Linking industrial equipment, PLCs, or measurement instruments with DB9 ports
• Establishing RS-232 communication between two devices that require male DB9 connectors
• Temporary or permanent cabling in desktop, lab, or rack setups where 1.8 m length is appropriate

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Connector type: DB9 male to DB9 male (9-pin D-sub)
• Intended interface: RS-232 / serial communication
• Brand: DELOCK

How to use

Connect each DB9 male connector to the corresponding female DB9 port on the devices to be linked. Ensure that the devices are powered off or set to a safe state before plugging or unplugging the cable to avoid electrical issues. After physical connection, configure the serial communication parameters (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits, and flow control) in each device or in the host software to match the required settings for data exchange.

Usage recommendations

For stable communication, route the cable away from high-voltage lines and strong electromagnetic sources. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the cable to preserve connector integrity. Verify pinout compatibility between connected devices when working with specialized equipment to ensure correct signal mapping.
