Serial Cable EFB Elektronik EK129.5 Beige 5 m DE-9

The EFB Elektronik EK129.5 is a 5 m beige serial cable with a DE-9 male-to-female wiring (1:1). The cable is moulded and shielded, and comes with long thumb screws for secure connections. It is intended for reliable serial data transmission between devices in industrial and office settings.

Advantages

Shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference for stable communication. Moulded connectors and long thumb screws improve mechanical durability and simplify hand-tightening without tools. The 5 m length provides flexibility in device placement while maintaining a straightforward 1:1 wiring for compatibility with standard RS-232 equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to modems, routers or serial peripherals
• Point-of-sale and industrial control equipment
• Serial consoles, configuration ports and diagnostic interfaces

How to use

Align the DE-9 connectors and plug the cable into the serial ports of the two devices. Secure each connector by hand-tightening the long thumb screws to ensure a stable mechanical and electrical connection. Use the cable as-is for standard RS-232 1:1 serial communication between compatible devices. Avoid excessive bending near the moulded connector to prolong cable life.

Usage recommendations

For best results, keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference (large motors, unshielded power lines). Inspect connectors periodically for damage and replace the cable if shielding or moulded ends are compromised.
