Product Overview
The Adder CAB-9DF-RJ9-2M is a 2-meter upgrade cable for ADDERLink X200 extenders, fitted with a 9-pin D-type female connector on one end and an RJ9 modular plug on the other. It links the X200 unit's upgrade socket to a computer's RS232 9-way serial port so firmware updates can be applied to the extender. For administrators maintaining a fleet of X200 KVM extenders, this is the manufacturer-specified serial cable that makes field firmware upgrades possible.
Product Description
ADDERLink X200 extenders receive firmware improvements over their service life, and applying those updates requires a physical serial connection — the X200 has no network port of its own. The CAB-9DF-RJ9-2M provides that connection: the RJ9 plug fits the upgrade socket adjacent to the switch block on the X200 unit, while the 9-pin D female end connects to a vacant RS232 serial port on the host computer running the upgrade utility.

The 2-meter length gives technicians comfortable working room between the extender and the service laptop or workstation, whether the unit is at a desk position or mounted behind a display. Because the X200's upgrade port uses a non-standard RJ9 interface, generic serial cables cannot substitute — this Adder part is the correct tool for the job and a sensible addition to any service kit supporting X200 deployments. One cable serves an entire estate of extenders, since it is only connected during maintenance. Find X200 extenders and related accessories in our Adder Technology collection.
