Beige DB25 male-to-female serial extension cable six feet long

Electronix Express

Electronix Express DB25 Male-Female Extension Cable 6 ft 28 AWG RS-232 Beige

SKU CH-BBAT-RQK2W

A 6 ft beige DB25 male-to-female cable extends RS-232 serial links between computers and peripherals at 28 AWG

  • ColorBeige
  • Extends RS-232 serial links by six feet
  • DB25 male-to-female connectors join existing cables directly
  • 28 AWG conductors carry the data signal reliably
  • Beige jacket matches legacy office equipment
  • Simple plug-in adds length without signal conversion

6-foot DB25 male-female serial extension

This beige RS-232 extension cable adds 6 feet of reach between a computer serial port and a peripheral. The 28 AWG conductors carry the full 25-pin DB25 signal set from a male plug to a female jack. It suits installers who need extra length without replacing the existing cable run.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

The passive cable draws no power and produces no heat or noise during data transfer. Signal integrity is maintained by the shielded 28 AWG construction across the 6-foot span. No active electronics means zero thermal load on the host or peripheral.

Behaviour under sustained load

Continuous RS-232 traffic at the standard signalling rates shows no degradation over the 6-foot distance. The fixed 28 AWG gauge limits maximum reliable length, so runs longer than this cable cannot be supported by chaining additional extensions. Users needing greater reach must choose a different cable specification.

Questions about this item

How do I install the DB25 male-to-female extension, and which connector goes where?

Plug the male DB25 end into the port on your computer or peripheral, then attach the existing cable's male connector to the female end of this 6 ft extension; the gender change is the step most people reverse.

What maintenance or replacement will the 28 AWG DB25 extension need later?

Inspect the beige jacket and DB25 pins periodically for kinks or bent contacts; replace the cable if the shielding is crushed or pins no longer seat firmly.

What limit appears first when the RS-232 link runs continuously through this 6 ft DB25 extension?

Signal attenuation over the 28 AWG conductors becomes the limiting factor on long runs, so the practical ceiling is the maximum reliable distance the RS-232 standard permits for this gauge.
