Description

Zebra CBA-R51-S16ZAR RS232 Serial Cable

Overview

The Zebra CBA-R51-S16ZAR is a 5-meter (16.4 ft) serial cable designed to connect Zebra multi-plane scanners, such as the MP6/7000 series, to host systems via an RS232 interface. This cable ensures reliable data transmission for critical scanning operations in retail, logistics, and manufacturing environments where direct serial communication is required. Its 5-meter length provides flexibility for scanner placement away from the host terminal.

Compatibility

This cable is specifically designed for Zebra multi-plane scanners that utilize an RS232 serial interface for data output. It is confirmed for use with the Zebra MP6 and MP7000 scanner series. Ensure your host system has a female DB-9 serial port for connection.

Installation Notes

The cable terminates in a female DB-9 connector on one end, intended to plug directly into the host system's serial port. The other end connects to the scanner's serial port. No special tools or software are required for installation; it is a plug-and-play serial interface connection.
