A-SL254-DA-Z16MR1

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The A-SL254-DA-Z16MR1 is a high-speed serial link cable assembly manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. It features an RJ45 connector on one end and a DB9 male D-Sub connector on the other, designed for reliable data transmission in industrial and computing environments. The cable utilizes Category 5e (Cat5e) twisted pair construction to support Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps while maintaining signal integrity through precise impedance control. With a total length of 1.6 meters, this assembly provides adequate reach for connecting network switches, routers, or legacy serial devices requiring specific interface adaptations. The connectors are shielded to minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable performance in electrically noisy settings.

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific pinout mapping aligns with your system requirements, as DB9-to-RJ45 assemblies often require custom wiring rather than standard crossover or straight-through Ethernet configurations. Confirm shielding continuity if operating in high-interference environments. Ensure the connector strain relief meets mechanical stress expectations for your installation. Check for RoHS compliance if environmental regulations apply to your project.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this model when a direct physical interface conversion between RJ45 and DB9 ports is necessary without active signal conversion electronics. Consider the 1.6-meter length for fixed installations where flexibility is not the primary requirement. Evaluate the need for additional shielding if the deployment environment exceeds standard EMI thresholds. Compare against active media converters if protocol translation beyond physical layer adaptation is required.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This component belongs to Assmann WSW's specialized cable assembly portfolio, focusing on mixed-interface solutions for industrial and IT infrastructure. Unlike standard patch cables, it bridges distinct connector standards, serving niche applications where legacy serial hardware must integrate with modern Ethernet networks. The design prioritizes robustness and signal fidelity over generic connectivity.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements should match the RJ45-to-DB9 pinout specification exactly, as non-standard mappings exist. Verify identical Cat5e construction and shielding characteristics. Length variations may be acceptable if routing constraints allow, but electrical performance remains consistent across standard lengths. Active media converters offer functional alternatives if protocol conversion is needed.
