Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns ‍

 Do these come with the assembly screws? Our standard computer covers are designed to include the necessary hardware (screws and nuts) for securing the two halves together and mounting the hood to the equipment port.

Can I use the DB9 cover for a VGA cable? No. While they look similar, a standard VGA cable requires the EDB-15H 15-Way Cover due to the high-density three-row pin configuration of VGA (DE-15).

 Is the metal cover better for data interference? Yes. The EDB-HDS15 Metal Cover provides superior electromagnetic shielding, making it the preferred choice for industrial environments where high-voltage machinery might interfere with serial data signals.
