Parallel Cable LogiLink UA0054A Black 1.8m

The LogiLink UA0054A Black 1.8m is a parallel cable designed to connect equipment that uses a Type A connector to devices with a DB25 port. With a 1.8 metre length and black outer jacket, the cable provides a straightforward wired connection for printers, external controllers and other legacy or specialised peripherals that rely on parallel data interfaces. The construction focuses on dependable signal transmission and practical use in home and office setups.

Advantages

The cable delivers a direct parallel interface connection between Type A and DB25 devices, reducing the need for adapters or multiple intermediaries. Its 1.8m length offers a balance between reach and cable management, while the black finish integrates discreetly into most environments. The design emphasises reliable data transmission and compatibility with equipment that supports parallel communication.

Suitable for

• Connecting parallel-interface printers to computers or print servers
• Linking industrial or laboratory equipment with DB25 ports to Type A hosts
• Temporary or permanent wired setups in offices where parallel connections are required

Key specifications

• Connector 1: Type A
• Connector 2: DB25
• Length: 1.8 m
• Colour: Black

How to use

Insert the Type A connector into the matching port on the host device and the DB25 connector into the peripheral device's parallel port, ensuring each connector is fully seated. Secure any retaining screws on the DB25 end if present to prevent accidental disconnection. After connecting, power on the devices and configure the host operating system or device settings to recognise and use the connected peripheral via the parallel port.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight cable bends and keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large transformers or unshielded power supplies. If the connected devices will remain in place for long periods, check the connectors occasionally for firm seating and inspect the cable jacket for damage.
