Overview

The StarTech 9FMNM-3M-RS232-CABLE is a 3-meter (9.8 ft) serial null modem cable designed to directly connect two DTE or DCE devices, such as connecting a computer to a serial printer or a console port on network equipment. This cable facilitates direct serial communication without requiring a modem. The 9FMNM-3M-RS232-CABLE is constructed with 28 AWG tinned copper wire for reliable data transmission.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for general-purpose serial communication and is compatible with any device requiring a DB9 male to DB9 female null modem serial connection. It is suitable for connecting to serial ports on industrial controllers, laboratory equipment, point-of-sale systems, and legacy network hardware. The cable's wiring scheme supports standard null modem configurations.

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of 20 to 80C (68 to 176F) and can be stored between 20 to 80C (68 to 176F). It supports a humidity range of 15% to 65% non-condensing. The PVC jacket provides durability for standard installations. The connectors are nickel-plated for corrosion resistance. The cable features a straight-through wiring configuration suitable for null modem applications.
