Mini DIN 8 Pin Male to Bare Wire End Adapter Cable, MD8 Connector Pigtail for DIY and Repair (3mtr)

All eight pins are connected to wires that are color coded the same as resistors. Pin one is black, pin two is brown and so on up to violet. The shield drain wire is also brought out. The wires are a small gauge size, likely 24 or 26 but I didn't measure so it could be even smaller. Not meant to carry a lot of power. I used it to connect my Yaesu 991A transceiver to my Heath kit SB221 linear Amp, to operate the antenna switch in the amp.

The Pinout graphic mentions a White wire, but there was no white wire in the cable I received. Took a multimeter to it and everything else in the diagram checked out with pin 9 corresponding to Purple instead of White.

I purchased this device as a way to learn RS422 and RS232 for VISCA controler for PTZ cameras. It did just what I needed it to do.

Color chart doesn't exactly match wire color to pin position, I suggest doing a pinout yourself but overall a decent cable

All wires present and accounted for use. All I needed.

Well made cable. It would be very helpful to include a chart matching wire color to pin number.

I would hope to see a plug with an internal metal strain relief.

If you’re using it to communicate with a PLC, this isn’t the one for you. The shielding is very off, to the point that it rendered the cable useless, only way to use it would be to figure out a way to punch those bevels from the inside, or to modify the PLC connector (don’t.. absolutely don’t do that). The cable may work for other systems, but for a PLC, the tolerances are just way too low for it to plug in. Just this one oversight rendered the cable completely useless. I tried twisting with needle nose pliers, doesn’t work, one solid piece.

Ordered by mistake wanted full size din

Nothing out of order, it is exactly what i hoped and expected.

Super

Così cosi

Alles war perfekt! Gerne wieder!
