InLine Slot Bracket DB9 Male to 10-Pin Internal Header Direct 1:1 Cable 0.6 m Grey UL Certified

The InLine Slot Bracket DB9 Male to 10-Pin Internal Header Direct 1:1 Cable 0.6 m Grey UL Certified is a reliable hardware component designed to route an internal motherboard serial connection to the exterior of a computer system. Featuring a standard DB9 male connector mounted on a slot bracket and a 10-pin internal header on the other end, this grey cable provides a straightforward method for adding an external serial port to a PC chassis. With a practical length of 0.6 meters, it ensures flexible cable routing inside various enclosure types while maintaining a secure and certified connection.

Advantages

This slot bracket enables seamless extension of internal serial interfaces to the back panel of a computer without requiring complex configuration. The direct 1:1 pin mapping ensures accurate signal transmission from the motherboard to external serial devices. Its 60 cm length offers sufficient reach for tidy internal cable management, accommodating different motherboard layouts and chassis sizes. Additionally, the component holds UL certification, ensuring adherence to recognized safety and quality standards.

Suitable for

• Connecting legacy serial devices to modern motherboards equipped with a 10-pin internal header
• Routing internal COM ports to the rear expansion slots of a PC case
• Setting up serial communication for industrial, diagnostic, or office equipment
• System builders requiring a standard 1:1 pinout serial slot bracket for PC maintenance

This product may not be suitable if your motherboard lacks an available 10-pin internal serial header or if your system requires a non-standard pin mapping different from the direct 1:1 configuration. It is also not intended for parallel port connections, video signal transmission, or high-speed data transfer applications outside the standard parameters of serial communication interfaces.

Key specifications

• Connector 1: DB9 male (on slot bracket)
• Connector 2: 10-pin female internal header
• Cable length: 0.6 meters
• Pinout configuration: Direct 1:1 mapping (pins 1 to 9 mapped directly, pin 10 not connected)
• Colour: Grey
• Certification: UL certified
• Weight: 29 g
• Form factor: Low-profile slot bracket

To install the InLine slot bracket, power down and unplug the computer system before opening the chassis. Locate an available low-profile expansion slot on the back of the PC case and secure the bracket using a screw. Route the 60 cm cable internally and plug the 10-pin female header directly into the corresponding serial header on the motherboard, ensuring proper orientation and alignment based on the 1:1 pinout. Close the computer case, reconnect power, and verify the external DB9 port functionality through the operating system.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your motherboard features an internal 10-pin serial header compatible with this cable
• Check your PC chassis for available expansion slot space to mount the bracket
• Confirm that your external peripherals utilize a standard DB9 serial connection

Usage recommendations: Ensure the computer is completely powered off and disconnected from the mains supply during installation. Handle the internal header connector with care to avoid bending pins on the motherboard. Route the cable away from sharp metal edges and moving cooling fans inside the chassis to prevent wear and ensure long-term reliability.
