Applications
The IBM 4683 was IBM's retail point-of-sale terminal family introduced in the 1980s and widely deployed in retail, grocery, and hospitality environments through the 1990s. This cable connects the 4683 terminal to a compatible cash drawer, carrying the electronic signal that triggers the drawer to open on command during a transaction. The 16-pin AMP flat ribbon interface was specific to IBM's 4683 POS ecosystem. While the 4683 series has largely been retired from new deployments, many legacy retail and institutional environments still maintain these systems, and replacement cables like this one remain useful for keeping older POS hardware operational.
This IBM 4683-P21 POS cash drawer cable (part number 6316844) is in good used condition. The flat ribbon cable and both 16-pin AMP connectors appear intact and undamaged. There is light surface soiling typical of storage and handling on a used cable of this age. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
