peer agreement (net): +1| câble fil à fil pin-to-pin Explanation: Colin may well have come up with the right answer with his suggestion, but I just wanted to give another possible alternative. I suspect what it may in fact mean (which is prettyy sloppily expressed by 'fil à fil') is simply that this cable is wired up with all pins connected to their corresponding pin on the other connector; in other words, pin 1 connects to pin 1, pin 2 to pin 2... right up to pin 9 This is quite likely to be a sub-miniature D-type connector, even though the number quoted seems to be a little awry from this (usually SUBD) with 9 pins I believe that a wire-to-wire cable is actually something rather different, and I'm not sure that is applicable here. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 31 mins (2005-04-20 08:20:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Here\'s just one of many Googles describing such an arrangement: By International Communications ... not necessary to use the ITT part, any 9-pin sub-D connectors can be ... If a longer cable is required, manufacture a cable with pin-to-pin Continuity. ... www.intcomgrp.com/pages/manuals/Cordless.pdf Note that a 9-pin sub-D cable is quite a likely bet for such an application as yours, so that slightly adds weight to my hunch! Do you have any other part nos. or anything like that to go on? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs 51 mins (2005-04-20 14:40:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It\'s perhaps worth adding that it is quite important to specify pin-to-pin wiring, as other configurations are commonly used too. For example, one of the most common is what is usually referred to as \'mirror\' wiring, where pin 1 goes to pin 9, pin 2 to pin 8, and so on. Hence when specifying a cable, it is not only important to specify the connectors on each end of it, but also the correspondence between their connections; this is of particular relevance in cases where the same type of connector is used at each end, since in this case (particualrly with a M - F cable), the most logical type of connection to expect would indeed be \'pin-to-pin\' or \'straight-through\' wiring. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 10 hrs 14 mins (2005-04-22 18:04:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Do note that Colin\'s first 2 references in fact refer to a different principle, and the 3rd and 4th are in fact the same product, and from a foreign site to boot! Also, it is not clear whether this is in fact referring to the same thing or not; so just watch out! You may not be sure, but I am! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 10 hrs 16 mins (2005-04-22 18:06:02 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A quick Google on \"pin-to-pin\" + \"sub-D\" (a plausible possibility for the connector) yielded no less than 159 refs. , at least some of which seem highly relevant. |
