Zebra CBA-R09-C09ZAR Concise Descriptor
Overview
The Zebra CBA-R09-C09ZAR is a 9-foot (2.8 meter) coiled RS232 serial cable designed for direct 5V power input. This cable specifically addresses the connectivity needs for legacy Nixdorf Beetle point-of-sale terminals and other data collection devices that require a serial connection and direct power from the host. It provides a reliable interface for transmitting data between the terminal and a host system, ensuring operational continuity for existing infrastructure.
Compatibility
This cable is primarily designed for use with Nixdorf Beetle terminals. While the source documentation indicates that some Nixdorf Beetle models were discontinued in 2019, this cable remains a critical component for maintaining operational systems that utilize this hardware. It is also compatible with IBM SurePOS and Fujitsu TeamPoS systems that require a similar RS232 connection with 5V direct power.
Installation Notes
The CBA-R09-C09ZAR draws 5V direct power from the host system, eliminating the need for an external power supply in compatible configurations. Ensure the host system's serial port is configured to provide the necessary 5V power output. The coiled design offers flexibility and prevents excessive cable slack in tight workspaces.
