Description
DB25 Male to DB15 Female Serial Communication Cable RS-232 Adapter Cable
This is an unbranded RS-232 serial communication cable with a DB25 male connector on one end and a DB15 female connector on the other. It is used to connect or adapt serial devices that use different D-sub pin counts, a common requirement in legacy computing, industrial control, and test equipment setups where DB25 and DB15 serial ports coexist.
Specifications & What's Included
- Connector A: DB25 Male (25-pin D-Sub)
- Connector B: DB15 Female (15-pin D-Sub)
- Interface: RS-232 Serial
- Cable jacket color: Gray
- Cable length: Approximately 6 feet (estimated from photos)
- Includes: Cable only — no adapters or additional hardware
Applications
DB25 and DB15 D-sub connectors are found throughout legacy serial computing and industrial equipment. The 25-pin DB25 was the original RS-232 serial port standard used on IBM PC and compatible systems through the 1980s and into the 1990s, while the DB15 appears on a range of peripheral, instrumentation, and industrial interfaces. Cables like this one are still in demand for connecting older serial peripherals, CNC machines, test instruments, PLC programming ports, and data acquisition systems where mismatched connector sizes require an adapter cable rather than a straight-through connection. They are also commonly used in legacy system maintenance and integration work where original cabling is no longer available.
This DB25 Male to DB15 Female Serial Communication Cable has been inspected and is in good used condition. The connectors show some light surface wear and oxidation on the metal shells — visible in the photos — but the pins are intact and the cable jacket is clean. Please review our photos and contact us with any questions.
