New D-Subminiature Gender Changers Have Hardware Removed for Panel Mounting

L-com launched a line of D-subminiature female-to-female gender changers that have the normal mating hardware removed to make panel-mounting possible. The new items come in DB9, DB15, and DB25 sizes, as well as an HD15, commonly used in SVGA video applications.

Ordinary D-sub gender changers come with mating hardware that is too short for panel mounting, requiring the installer to remove the old hardware before adding the new, as demonstrated in the “How To Panel-Mount D-Subminiature Adapters” video on L-com’s website. For larger installations, this extra step can add a lot of time. By offering these adapters without the hardware, L-com saves installers time and money.

“A number of our customers had mentioned that they never use the mating hardware that comes with our slimline D-sub gender changers,” said Steve Smith, product manager. “We realized that offering these items without the hardware was a benefit for them.”

The new gender changers are available for same-day shipment. A 3D CAD model and 2D engineering drawing with mounting dimensions is available for free download from L-com’s website.
