DB9-to-RJ45 serial adapter

The StarTech.com GC98MF converts a DB9 male serial port into an RJ45 female jack. It is intended for technicians and integrators who need to connect legacy RS-232 equipment to modular cabling infrastructure.

Replaces custom pin-out cables

This adapter removes the need for hand-wired crossover leads when linking serial consoles to a 16-port enhanced RS232 console server. The jump is worth it whenever a clean, repeatable connection is preferred over soldered DB9-to-RJ45 pigtails.

Fits standard serial racks

The black modular body plugs directly into DB9 ports on servers, switches or console servers and accepts any RJ45 patch cord. It frees up bench space by eliminating bulky gender changers and keeps cable runs tidy in dense rack environments.

Questions about this item

What connectors does the GC98MF adapter provide for mounting?

The GC98MF has a DB9 male connector on one side and an RJ45 female port on the other for direct panel or device mounting.

How do I install the DB9 to RJ45 adapter onto the 16 port console server?

Align the DB9 male end with the server's serial port, secure the thumbscrews, then insert the RJ45 patch cable until it clicks.

When should I replace the GC98MF modular adapter?

Replace the adapter if the DB9 pins bend, the RJ45 latch breaks, or signal errors appear on the 16 port RS232 console server.
