Extron 232/100 (part number 26-433-10) — a 100 ft (30.4 m) 9-pin D male-to-female RS-232 control cable, the longest length in the Extron 232 Series. Extron has retired this part number.

One hundred feet is where a pre-terminated serial assembly stops competing with bulk cable and field connectors — and wins, because there is nothing to terminate and nothing to get wrong. This is the cable for the projector at the back of a large auditorium, the display at the end of a corridor, or the equipment position on a different floor of the same riser. Extron measures it tip to tip, connectors included. All nine pins run straight through with transmit on 2, receive on 3 and ground on 5, and the jacket is NEC CM rated for non-plenum routes.

Key Capabilities

• 100 ft (30.4 m) finished length — the longest cable in the 232 Series.

Where It Is Used

The longest single-run serial links an integrator can order factory-made: arena and auditorium projector control, lobby and wayfinding displays, multi-floor riser runs, and remote equipment positions in transit terminals, convention centers, worship campuses and large hospitals.
