Vivolink PRORS5 Serial Cable Black 5 m RS-232

The Vivolink PRORS5 is a 5-meter RS-232 serial cable with moulded D-Sub 9 connectors at both ends and 9-pin pass-through functionality. Designed for reliable data transmission, the cable combines a flexible construction with a compact, black design and a lightweight build (88 g) for easy handling and storage.

Advantages

The moulded D-Sub 9 connectors provide secure connections and reduce strain at the cable ends, while the 9-pin pass-through functionality maintains a full serial pinout for compatibility with standard RS-232 equipment. The 5 m length offers reach for many setup configurations, and the flexible jacket supports routing in confined spaces without compromising signal integrity.

Suitable for

• Connecting RS-232 devices such as modems, terminals and industrial controllers
• Serial communication between computers and legacy equipment
• Configuration and maintenance tasks that require a reliable RS-232 connection

How to use

Connect one moulded D-Sub 9 connector to the RS-232 port of your source device and the other connector to the target device. Ensure screws or fastening hardware are tightened to secure the connection. For best results, route the cable away from strong electromagnetic interference sources and avoid sharp bends that could stress the jacket or conductors.

Recommendations

For stable long-term operation, inspect connector mouldings and fastening screws periodically and replace the cable if physical damage or intermittent connections occur. When used in industrial environments, keep connectors free of dust and moisture and consider additional strain relief if required.
