Compact DB9 Male-to-Male Adapter

This slimline gender changer converts a 9-pin female serial port to a 9-pin male connection. It uses two DB9 male connectors in a compact form factor. The unit weighs .02 and is designed for straightforward serial-port gender conversion.

Suited for simple gender changes.

Technicians who need to change a DB9 female port to male for straight-through serial cables will find this adapter useful. It is not suited for buyers who need a null-modem crossover, for installations requiring a female-to-female connection, or for any interface other than DB9 serial.

DB9 Male-to-Male connector configuration

The defining specification is the pair of DB9 male connectors wired for gender conversion only. This pin-out determines whether the adapter matches the required cable-end gender in a serial deployment.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the GC9SM gender changer is working after connecting it?

Connect a known working serial cable and device to each DB9 male end; successful data transmission shows the changer is passing signals correctly.

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The package includes the GC9SM slimline DB9 male-to-male gender changer only; any DB9 serial cables or null-modem adapters needed for your devices are sold separately.

Which version of this changer should I choose for a straight-through 9-pin connection?

The GC9SM is a single straight-through DB9 male-to-male gender changer; select it when you need to join two female 9-pin ports without crossing transmit and receive lines.
