Datalogic Power Cable - RS-232 (W) - 4.5 m - Coiled

Engineered for high-flex environments, the Datalogic CAB-558 delivers reliable RS-232 serial communication over a 4.5-meter coiled cable, supporting data rates up to 115.2 kbps. This cable connects Datalogic barcode scanners to POS systems, industrial terminals, and retail workstations with a rugged, shielded design that withstands daily use.

Overview

The CAB-558 is a serial interface cable featuring a Datalogic 10-pin modular connector on the scanner side and a DB9 female connector on the host side. Its coiled design extends to 4.5 meters when stretched, providing flexibility without cable clutter. The cable is foil and braid shielded to minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable data transmission in noisy environments. It also supports power delivery from the host to the scanner, eliminating the need for an external power supply in many setups.
