Serial DB9 Header Cable for Intel NUC RS232 MB Header 9 Inch

‌The Serial DB9 Header Cable for NUC Dawson Canyon - 9 Inch is a specialized cable designed to add a serial (RS-232) DB9 connection to Intel NUCs (Next Unit of Computing), specifically for the Dawson Canyon models. The 9-inch length is longer than the standard 6-inch version, offering more flexibility in terms of installation and device placement.

Key Features:

DB9 Connector (Male/Female):

One end of the cable typically features a DB9 connector (a 9-pin D-sub connector), which is used for RS-232 serial communication. This connector is often used for connecting older peripherals like industrial equipment, networking hardware, or point-of-sale devices.

Internal Header Connector:

The other end of the cable connects to a serial header on the NUC’s motherboard. This header allows the internal hardware of the NUC to communicate with external serial devices via the DB9 port.

9-Inch Length:

The 9-inch (22.86 cm) length provides more flexibility in terms of cable routing compared to the standard 6-inch version. This extra length is useful for more complex setups where additional distance is needed between the NUC’s motherboard header and the location of the DB9 port.

Compatibility:

This cable is specifically designed for Intel NUC Dawson Canyon models, which feature a serial header on the motherboard. It allows users to expand the functionality of their compact NUC systems by adding legacy serial connectivity.

Use Case:

Often used in industrial, commercial, or specialized environments where serial connections are still commonly required, such as with certain legacy systems or machinery.

This longer version of the DB9 header cable offers enhanced flexibility for setups where additional cable length is necessary to route the connection to the desired location within the chassis.
