CBL ASY,15PIN DSUB,M/F,6FT SUPP P/NO: 560-13980-00 MFR P/NO: 2637 3R0301694
This cable assembly is a 6-foot DB15 Male to Female extension cable, designed for connecting various legacy devices that utilize a 15-pin D-subminiature (D-sub) connector. Unlike the high-density (HD) 15-pin connectors used for VGA, this is a standard-density DB15 cable, typically identified by its two rows of pins. Such cables were commonly used to extend connections for older game console joysticks, MIDI instruments, and various industrial data communication applications. The 1-to-1 pin mapping ensures a straight-through connection for reliable data transfer. With a generous 6-foot length, it offers flexibility in device placement, making it easy to position peripherals at a convenient distance from your computer or other equipment. The connectors are likely molded with thumbscrews for a secure fit, preventing accidental disconnections.
