Description

Black Box EYN257T-0010-FF RS232 Shielded Null Modem Cable

Overview

The Black Box EYN257T-0010-FF is a 10-foot shielded null modem cable designed for direct serial communication between two DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) devices, such as connecting a computer to a serial printer, modem, or other legacy peripheral. Its shielded construction minimizes electromagnetic interference, ensuring data integrity in electrically noisy environments. This cable is critical for integrating older industrial equipment or diagnostic tools that rely on RS-232 serial ports.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any system requiring a standard RS-232 serial connection using a DB9 female connector on one end and a DB9 male connector on the other, with internal wiring configured for null modem (crossover) communication. It is suitable for use with industrial controllers, network equipment console ports, and older data acquisition systems that utilize DB9 serial interfaces.

Installation Notes

Ensure the DB9 female port on your host device and the DB9 male port on your peripheral device are clean and free of debris before connecting. The cable's shielding is terminated to the connector shells to provide effective EMI/RFI protection.
