Cable serie ShiverPeaks BS78041-2 gris 1,8 m DB-9

The ShiverPeaks Serial Cable BS78041-2 Grey 1.8m DB-9 is a 1.8 metre serial cable with a DB-9 connector designed for reliable point-to-point data transmission between devices that use RS-232/serial interfaces. The cable's grey jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for office, industrial or home environments, while the DB-9 connector provides a common physical interface for legacy hardware, routers, modems, measurement instruments and control equipment.

Advantages

This serial cable provides a straightforward and durable connection option for devices with DB-9 ports. Its 1.8 m length balances reach and signal integrity for typical desk-to-rack or equipment-to-terminal connections. The DB-9 connector ensures compatibility with a wide range of serial devices, and the cable jacket protects internal conductors from everyday wear and handling. The simple design minimizes unnecessary features, focusing on stable data transfer and ease of use.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs or laptops to serial devices such as modems and routers
• Linking industrial controllers, PLCs and instrumentation to monitoring systems
• Programming or configuring network equipment and legacy hardware
• Establishing console connections to servers, switches and embedded systems

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.8 m
• Connector type: DB-9 (9-pin serial connector)
• Colour: grey jacket
• Intended interface: RS-232 / serial communication
• Construction: multi-conductor cable with protective outer jacket

How to use

Connect the DB-9 connector to the corresponding 9-pin serial port on your device and secure any retaining screws if present to ensure a stable mechanical connection. Use standard serial communication settings on both devices (for example, baud rate, parity, data bits and stop bits) appropriate for the equipment you are linking. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, excessive tension or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For devices that require null-modem wiring or gender adapters, verify the required pinout before use or add the appropriate adapter.

Recommendations

To maintain reliable performance, avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines and inspect connectors periodically for bent pins or debris. For long-term installations in industrial environments, consider using strain relief or cable management to reduce mechanical stress and prolong service life.
