<p>A serial cable is a computer cable used for data transfer and information between computers. The cables achieve this via serial communication protocols (data sent one bit at a time). Serial cable assemblies mostly use the RS-232 (Recommended Standard 232) interface specifications. </p><p>RS offer a selection of high-quality serial cables from leading brands including Phoenix Contact, Startech, Molex, TE Connectivity and of course RS PRO.</p><h2>How is a RS 232 Cable made?</h2><p>RS232 cables are typically made from shielded cable and will be terminated with D-subminiature connectors. D-subminiature connectors could be DB9 (9-pin) or DB25 (25-pin). The connectors can be plugs (male) or sockets (female). Cable ends often incorporate strain relief for added flexibility.</p><p>Take a look at our store to get your serial cables. We got all types of serial cables.
