Cabo série ShiverPeaks BS78065-5 cinzento 5 m DB-9 DB-25

The ShiverPeaks BS78065-5 Grey 5m DB-9 DB-25 serial cable is a 5-metre communication cable designed for wired RS-232 connections between devices with D-subminiature ports. Its DB-9 and DB-25 connectors provide compatibility with a wide range of legacy and industrial equipment, enabling point-to-point data transfer in control systems, diagnostic setups, and device configuration tasks. The grey jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for professional and technical environments.

Advantages

This cable delivers a straightforward wired link for serial communications with stable signal transmission over its 5 m length. The presence of both DB-9 and DB-25 connectors reduces the need for additional adapters when connecting different types of equipment. Constructed for routine use, the cable supports consistent contact at connector interfaces and a flexible jacket that facilitates routing and installation in racks or workstations.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, modems and serial printers with DB-9 or DB-25 ports
• Programming and configuring industrial controllers and instrumentation
• Diagnostic and service tasks for legacy telecommunications or measurement equipment
• Point-to-point data transfer in laboratory and workshop environments

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 metres
• Connector types: one DB-9 (9-pin D-sub), one DB-25 (25-pin D-sub)
• Cable jacket colour: grey
• Interface standard: serial RS-232-compatible wiring
• Construction: flexible insulated conductors with molded connector housings

How to use

Identify the serial ports on both devices and select the appropriate connector end (DB-9 or DB-25) for each. Align the D-sub connector pins with the socket and hand-tighten the connector screws to ensure secure mechanical and electrical contact. Use the full 5 m length to position devices with adequate clearance; avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable. When disconnecting, loosen the screws before gently withdrawing the connector to protect pins and sockets.

Recommendations

For reliable communication, keep the cable away from high-voltage lines and strong electromagnetic sources. If using in an industrial environment, route the cable to minimize exposure to moving parts and liquids. Inspect connectors periodically for corrosion or bent pins and replace the cable if physical damage is observed.
