Cable serie DeLOCK 86598 negro 5m RS-232 Sub-D9

The DeLOCK 86598 is a 5-meter serial cable with RS-232 Sub-D9 connectors on both ends, designed to provide reliable point-to-point communication between devices with a serial interface. The cable in black offers a practical length for installations where devices are separated by a few meters and requires a robust connection for data exchange. Construction focuses on steady signal transmission and mechanical durability suitable for office, industrial, and home environments.

Advantages

This serial cable offers stable RS-232 signal transmission over a 5 m distance and a straightforward Sub-D9 connector interface compatible with a wide range of legacy and industrial equipment. The black jacket provides a discreet appearance and additional protection against abrasion. The cable’s length and connector type make it simple to install without additional adapters when used with devices that support Sub-D9 serial ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, modems, printers and other devices with RS-232 Sub-D9 ports
• Industrial control equipment and PLC interfaces requiring serial communication
• Serial console connections for routers, switches and network appliances
• Legacy hardware integration and diagnostics in laboratories and workshops

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Connector type: RS-232 Sub-D9 (female/male as applicable to product)
• Color: black
• Signal standard: RS-232 serial communication
• Typical usage: point-to-point data transmission

How to use

Connect each Sub-D9 connector to the corresponding serial port on the devices you wish to link, ensuring correct orientation and secure fastening of the connector screws if present. Configure serial port settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits and flow control) on both devices to match communication parameters. After physical connection and configuration, test the link using terminal software or device diagnostics to confirm data transfer and correct operation.

Recommendations

Avoid routing the cable near high-voltage power lines or strong electromagnetic sources to reduce interference. For prolonged installations, ensure the cable is not tightly bent and maintain minimum bend radius recommended for similar serial cables. If used in industrial environments, verify connector fastening periodically and inspect the jacket for wear to maintain a reliable RS-232 connection.
