Description
Male DB9 Right-Angle PCB-Mount D-Sub Connector
Product Overview
The Male DB9 Right-Angle PCB Connector is a heavy-duty, board-level component engineered to provide a low-profile serial data interface directly on a printed circuit board. Featuring 9 precision solid plug pins arranged in two rows, this connector is designed with $90^\circ$ right-angle solder pins that feed through the board surface, positioning the mating interface parallel to the PCB layout.
Constructed with a rigid steel front shell and integrated molded plastic mounting brackets (board locks), it offers exceptional resistance to the forces of insertion and extraction. This makes it the industry standard for edge-of-board COM ports and compact industrial enclosures where vertical clearance is limited.
Key Features
-
Space-Saving Right-Angle Design: Mounts flat against the PCB surface, lowering the vertical clearance profile and allowing the connector interface to exit directly through a chassis side panel cutout.
-
Integrated Board-Lock Support: Outfitted with structural plastic or metal grounding brackets that snap or screw securely onto the PCB pads, absorbing mechanical mating stress and protecting the soldered joints from cracking over time.
-
Optimal Solder Pin Alignment: Precision-spaced through-hole pins fit cleanly into standard serial port PCB footprint layouts, ensuring smooth automated wave-soldering or manual assembly.
-
Rugged Steel Front Shield: Encased in a stamped metal outer shell that provides rigid structural shielding, reliable chassis grounding, and isolation against electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Applications
The standard serial interface for edge-of-board communication ports across industrial and diagnostic systems:
-
Industrial PLC & Controller Boards: Providing direct RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 serial communication links on programmable logic controllers.
-
CNC Controller Breakout Boards: Serving as the serial communication interface or pendant control link running from the main breakout board to external drivers.
-
Embedded System Motherboards: Integrating standard hardware COM ports directly onto micro-controller boards and industrial computing units.
-
Automotive & Diagnostic Equipment: Serving as the interface port on custom vehicle diagnostic readers, CAN bus interfaces, and data logging systems.
