Moxa NP21102 DB25M to DB9M RS232 cable for DE211 content_copy

The serial connection cable NP21102 from Moxa is a cable specifically developed for industrial applications to extend the transmission distance of serial signals. It is used to connect serial devices to multiport cards or industrial networks, enabling stable data transmission over short and medium distances. The cable is designed for use in environments where a reliable and robust connection is required, for example in automation technology or when integrating control systems.

Applications

The cable NP21102 is primarily used in industrial environments where connecting RS-232 devices to industrial PCs, servers, or control systems is necessary. It is suitable for applications where serial interfaces need to be extended over longer distances without impairing signal quality. Its use is common in production facilities, for communication with sensors, actuators, or other peripheral devices that are accessed via serial interfaces.

Functions and Features in Detail

The cable connects a DB25 male connector to a DB9 male connector and is therefore designed for extending RS232 interfaces. It enables the physical connection between a board-side connection, for example on a multiport card, and a device with a DB9 interface. The use of standardized connectors ensures easy and secure installation.

Technology Explained Simply

The technology of the cable is based on the transmission of serial data over a physical cable, where signals are transmitted between two devices via defined pins in the connector. The use of DB25 and DB9 connectors corresponds to common industry standards, particularly for RS232 connections. The cable construction is designed to minimize interference and ensure clear signal transmission. The use of metallic connectors ensures a secure contact that remains stable even under mechanical stress.

Compatibility and Accessories

The cable NP21102 is compatible with devices that have a DB25 male interface on the board side and a DB9 male interface on the device side. It is specifically recommended for use with the model DE211, indicating application in a specific system environment. Other models in the product series include variants with different connectors such as RJ45, USB, VHDCI, or terminal block, as well as breakout cables that route multiple serial ports from a single connection. The cables support common serial interface standards such as RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485, although explicit support for model NP21102 is not stated.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply plugging the connectors into the corresponding ports. No additional tools or special mounting procedures are required. The connection is immediately functional once the connectors are properly connected. The cables are designed for flexible installation in industrial environments, with cable length varying depending on the model.

Operational Advantages

Using the cable NP21102 offers the advantage of simple and reliable extension of serial signals without requiring additional power supply or active components. The connection is stable and resistant to mechanical stress. The use of standardized connectors facilitates maintenance and interchangeability. The cable is designed for industrial environments where high availability and reliability are required.

Scope of Delivery

The scope of delivery includes 1x serial connection cable according to model designation NP21102.
