Monoprice 6 Foot DB37 Male To Female Molded Cable - RS-449 Serial Cable

About This Product

Tech folks working with legacy equipment, this Monoprice DB37 cable is exactly what you need for RS-449 communications! It's a 6-foot cable with a male DB37 connector on one end and female on the other, wired straight through pin for pin. The RS-449 standard (also called EIA-449 or TIA-449) was designed to replace the more common RS-232, supporting both RS-422 balanced signals and RS-423 unbalanced signals. It can handle data rates up to 10 Mbps over short distances or 2 Mbps over more reasonable distances. Even though the standard was technically withdrawn back in 2002, it's still used in some network communications equipment where you need high throughput or longer distances. This cable is also commonly used with V.36 modem equipment. The connectors are molded onto the cable, which makes them more durable than assembled connectors, and they feature thumbscrews for securing the connection properly. If you're working with older industrial equipment, networking gear, or specialized communications devices that use DB37 connectors, having a quality cable like this is essential. Monoprice is known for reliable cables at reasonable prices, and this one delivers the quality you need for professional applications. It's one of those specialized cables you might not need often, but when you do need it, nothing else will work properly!
