Black Box EDN12H-0025-FF RS232 Shielded Cable - Metal Hood, DB9 Female/Female, 25-FT. (7.6-M)
Overview
This Black Box EDN12H-0025-FF cable provides a reliable serial data link for connecting two DB9 female devices. The shielded construction with a metal hood minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring data integrity in environments with potential signal disruption. Its 25-foot (7.6-meter) length offers flexibility for installations where devices are not in close proximity.
Compatibility
Designed for standard RS232 serial communication, this cable is compatible with any two devices featuring DB9 male ports that require a female-to-female serial connection. This includes many industrial control systems, legacy networking equipment, diagnostic tools, and certain security system components that utilize serial interfaces for configuration or data transfer.
Installation Notes
The metal hood on the EDN12H-0025-FF provides a robust connection point and aids in grounding. Ensure both DB9 connectors are fully seated and secured to prevent accidental disconnection. For optimal EMI protection, connect the metal hood to a common ground point if available in your installation environment.
