ATEN 2L-2700 serial cable Black 0.6 m DB-25 Male DB-25 Female

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

ATEN’s 2L-2700 serial cable is the kind of boring, reliable accessory you buy once and then forget about. For the price (£14.34 ex-VAT), it’s not “cheap-cheap,” but you’re also not paying the kind of markup you sometimes see on branded spares. If you’re wiring up an existing serial console/management setup (switches, older networking kit, serial-to-USB workflows, UPS/config devices), this short, fixed-length lead is genuinely handy—less cable clutter, fewer bodges, and a decent chance it “just works” with the DB-25 pinout you already depend on.

Who should buy: teams maintaining legacy infrastructure, NOC/ops techs standardising spare parts, and anyone with DB-25 serial gear that needs a short extension between two fixed points. Who should *not*: if you’re planning new builds—modern kit mostly lives on Ethernet/USB—or if you don’t already know you specifically need DB-25. Also worth noting: serial cabling is all about the right gender/pinout and whether you need straight-through vs null-modem; this is a straightforward DB-25 male to female cable, so if your equipment expects a different wiring arrangement, you’ll need the correct variant rather than hoping it’ll be fine.
