DeLOCK 86614 Serial Cable Black 0.5m RS-232

This Delock serial cable is a full handshaking null modem cable for connecting two RS-232 devices such as printers, measuring instruments, converters, RS-232 hubs and patch panels. It enables direct bidirectional data exchange between serial devices and features compact Mini D-Sub9 connectors that allow adjacent RS-232 ports to be used even in tight spaces.

Advantages

The cable supports full handshaking for reliable data flow control and compatibility with a wide range of RS-232 equipment. Mini D-Sub9 connectors are smaller than standard D-Sub9 connectors, permitting closer placement of ports and saving space on devices or panels. The cable is tuned for direct device-to-device serial communication without the need for additional adapters.

Key specifications

• Interface: RS-232 null modem (full handshaking)
• Connector type: Mini D-Sub9 (compact form factor)
• Use cases: Printers, measuring instruments, converters, RS-232 hubs, patch panels

How to use

Connect each Mini D-Sub9 connector to the RS-232 port of the respective devices. Ensure both devices are configured for matching serial settings (baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) and that flow control is enabled if required. After connection and configuration, devices can exchange data directly over the serial link.

Recommendations

Verify connector compatibility and serial settings on both devices before use. Avoid excessive cable bending near the connectors and keep cable length appropriate for reliable RS-232 communication.
