## Description

6FT DB9 F/F STRAIGHT THROUGH

Review: Great cable for switch management. - This cable is great. It's construction feels solid, nothing flimsy about these. It might be a little stiff, but that just adds to the solid feel of the cable. Straight through connection style let one of my older computers communicate with a Baystack switch with ease, all the way up to 96k baud. Definitely a good buy for only $4 if you're looking to connect older equipment with DB9 connectors.
Review: YEP, THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED - AFTER GOING THROUGH ALOT OF MISERY WITH A HAM FRIEND WHO WAS TRYING TO GET HIS TS-590S LINKED TO HIS COMPUTER WITH LITTLE SUCCESS. WE DISCOVERED THAT THE RECOMENDED CABLE FROM TWO SUPPLIERS WAS THE WRONG ONE. THIS STARTECH CABLE IS WHAT YOU NEED IF YOU'RE TRYING TO INTERFACE YOUR KENWOOD TS-590 TO YOUR COMPUTER!! I FOLLOWED MY FRIENDS ADVICE AND ORDERED ONE FOR MY TS-590 AND AFTER THE CABLE ARRIVED,(WITHIN ONE WEEK), I HAD MY SYSTEM UP AND RUNNING THROUGH MY COMPUTER WITHIN 20 MINUTES.
