Description

StarTech GC99MFRA2 Right Angle DB9 to DB9 Serial Cable Adapter Type 2 - M/F

Overview

The StarTech GC99MFRA2 is a right-angle DB9 to DB9 serial adapter designed to connect legacy serial devices in installations where space is constrained. This M/F adapter allows you to reroute a serial connection by 90 degrees, preventing cable strain and damage in tight enclosures or behind equipment racks. It's essential for integrating older industrial control systems, diagnostic tools, or network equipment that still rely on RS-232 serial communication.

Compatibility

This adapter is compatible with any standard DB9 serial port, functioning as a passive gender changer and right-angle connector. It is suitable for use with a wide range of serial devices, including industrial automation equipment, point-of-sale systems, scientific instruments, and network infrastructure devices that utilize RS-232 communication protocols.

Installation Notes

The adapter operates within an ambient temperature range of -20°C to 80°C and a storage temperature range of -20°C to 80°C. It requires a humidity level between 15% and 65% (non-condensing). The compact dimensions (1.3 in. x 1.0 in. x 1.2 in.) facilitate installation in confined spaces. The product weighs only 1.0 oz.
