Keep your specialized equipment running with our Professional 9-Way (DB9) Serial Connectors. Whether you are repairing a legacy computer system, programming an industrial PLC, or building custom RS232 data cables, these connectors provide the reliable, low-resistance link you need. Available in both Male and Female variants, these solder-type plugs are designed for long-term durability in both office and factory environments.
Industrial Programming: Create custom RS232 cables for PLCs, CNC machinery, and robotics.
IT & Networking: Perfect for console cables used to configure network switches, routers, and firewalls.
Legacy Computing: Restore COM port connections on vintage PCs, printers, and laboratory equipment.
DIY Electronics: Ideal for microcontroller projects (like Arduino or Raspberry Pi) requiring serial communication.
Standard 9-Pin Configuration: Full DB9 layout (2 rows: 5 pins and 4 pins) compatible with all standard RS232/RS485 serial protocols.
High-Precision Solder Cups: Each pin features a dedicated solder bucket, making it easy to attach wires securely for a permanent, vibration-proof connection.
Excellent Shielding: Metal-shielded housing reduces EMI/RFI, ensuring data integrity over long-distance serial runs.
Corrosion-Resistant Contacts: Nickel-plated (or gold-flash) pins ensure consistent conductivity and prevent data errors caused by oxidation.
Reliable Data Transfer: Engineered to handle standard baud rates without signal jitter or packet loss.
Rugged Construction: Built to withstand frequent plugging/unplugging in demanding industrial settings.
Universal Compatibility: Fits standard DB9 hoods and backshells for a professional, finished look.
Type: DB9 (D-Sub 9-Pin)
Gender: Available in Male (Pins) or Female (Sockets)
Attachment: Solder-Type
What is the difference between Male and Female DB9?
The Male connector has 9 protruding pins and is typically found on the computer's COM port. The Female connector has 9 holes (sockets) and is typically found on the cable that plugs into the computer.
Do I need a cover for this?
Yes. To protect the solder joints and provide strain relief for the cable, we recommend using a DB9 Plastic or Metal Backshell (Hood), sold separately.
Can I use this for VGA?
No. While they look similar, VGA uses 15 pins (HDS15) in three rows. This is a 9-pin connector used for Serial/Data communication.
