DB15 Thumbscrew Serial Cable

This Black Box DB15 thumbscrew cable connects two DB-15 male serial ports over a 5 ft (1.5 m) shielded round cable. It is suited for legacy serial links such as industrial equipment, older networking gear or console connections that require a secure thumbscrew fit.

Check your port gender and pinout

Verify both devices present a DB-15 female serial port and that the pin assignment matches a straight-through or null-modem wiring as your application demands. Ensure the 5 ft reach fits the rack or bench layout without tension on the connectors.

Questions about this item

Does the 5-ft cable arrive with both DB-15 male ends already fitted, or must I source connectors separately?

Both DB-15 male connectors are pre-installed on the 5-ft length, so nothing else is required for a straight-through link.

Should I pick the 5-ft version or a different length for a 1.5-m run between serial ports?

The 5-ft measurement equals 1.5 m, so this single version matches that exact distance.
