StarTech DB-9 serial cable, 2 m, Black

This component is a dedicated serial extension cable designed to extend the operating distance of RS-232 compliant peripheral devices. It utilizes standard DB-9 (D-Sub) connectors, configured for male-to-female connectivity, allowing for straightforward extension between existing cables or equipment ports. The cable measures 2 meters in length, supporting setups that require modest separation between the host and the connected serial device. This design facilitates integration with legacy serial hardware such as modems, point-of-sale systems, or specific industrial control units requiring reliable asynchronous communication.

The construction prioritizes signal integrity and durability necessary for continuous RS-232 data transmission. Internal shielding, specifically Aluminum-Mylar Foil, is integrated to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) that could potentially corrupt data signals. The connectors feature Nickel plating, which provides standard corrosion resistance at the contact points over time. An outer jacket composed of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) protects the internal wiring and maintains sufficient cable flexibility during installation and routing.
