Need to extend your CAN bus system? With this 3 meter low cost DB9 female to DB9 male connector cable, you'll be able to easily extend your CAN bus system or connect your CAN logger, CAN-USB interface or sensor-to-CAN module to a difficult-to-reach location. The cables are non-terminated, letting you combine multiple together. Buy now - or learn more below! OUTLINE TECH SPECS USE CASES FAQ SOLID QUALITY Rugged quality adapter cable with 22 AWG (0.5 mm2) thickness COMBINE Cables are non-terminated and can be combined multiple times CONVENIENT Easily access your CAN logger from difficult-to-reach applications SOLID LOCK DB9 screw locks ensure a solid connection STANDARD DB9 Works with most CAN bus adapters (CiA 303-1 compatible) 1Y WARRANTY We offer a 1-year warranty on all our products About the extension cable The 3 meter DB9 (male) to DB9 (female) CAN bus extension cable is great for connecting multiple CAN nodes in a system. In particular, you can use it to connect a CANedge, CANsub or CANmod to an existing CAN bus in difficult-to-reach locations. The cable is non-terminated, letting you combine multiple cables. The DB9 pinouts are according to CiA 303-1, meaning that the cable can be used with any of our CAN loggers/interfaces - as well as most other CAN tools on the market. use cases Check out our tech specs, use cases or FAQ - or buy now!

If you need to collect CAN data from difficult-to-reach assets a DB9-DB9 extension cable can provide quick access to your CAN logger. It's also useful in case you need to stream real-time CAN data from e.g. test benches while being in a different room. Note that the maximal bit rate falls as you extend the cables. What is the maximum cable length for 1 Mbps? When the length of the CAN bus system is extended, there is an increased propagation delay. For signaling at 1 Mbps, the maximum cable length is 40 meters to be compliant with the CAN bus standard, which specifies a maximum propagation delay of 5 ns per meter. For details, see this NI article.
