DTech DB9 RS232 Serial Null Modem Cable, Male to Female. This 5-foot (1.5 meter) cable is designed for transferring data between two Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) devices using the RS-232 serial communication protocol. Made with copper wiring, it features gold-plated pins for superior corrosion resistance and nickel-plated interface surfaces for a solid connection.
Key Features:
* DB9 Male to DB9 Female Crossover Null Modem Cable with full 7-wire handshaking
* Connects two DTE devices with 9-pin, 2-row COM port RS-232 compatible interfaces
* Wired as a 9-pin serial port null-modem cord where 2-3, 4-6, 7-8 lines are cross linked (TX, RX, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR wires connected)
* AL foil shielding for reliable data transfer
* Equipped with thumbscrews on both DB9 connectors for a secure and easy connection
* Wire Gauge: 30 AWG; Cord Diameter: 6mm
* Ideal for RS-232C serial console access with devices like proxySG, MS-DOS PCs, network equipment, switch hubs, and routers for file transfer, resource sharing, and debugging.
Note: This is a male to female crossover null modem cable with full handshaking, not a simple null modem or loopback handshake null modem. It does not perform straight-through functions and is not a 15-pin 3-row VGA cable for video.
