This 25-pin male-to-female D-subminiature cable extends serial and parallel data connections with straight-through 1-to-1 wiring across all 25 pins. Built for RS-232 communications and legacy parallel port applications, the cable delivers reliable signal integrity through foil shielding that rejects electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. Each contact is gold-flashed to resist corrosion, while molded connectors with thumbscrews ensure secure mating. The assembly terminates in solder-cup, IDC, or crimped contact configurations depending on application requirements.
