6ft DB25 male to male parallel cable provides increased speed and functionality over standard parallel cabling. Connect IEEE-1284-compliant printers, scanners, HP tape drives, Iomega devices and other compliant peripherals to PC. To enjoy the increased data rate and two-way communication of your IEEE-1284-compliant printer or scanner, you need a cable with high quality connectors and a specialized wire type. Our cable exploits this technology to enable high-speed, bi-directional communication between a desktop PC and a peripheral. 17-pair wire twisted with at least 36 turns per meter, molded connectors, foil shielding and 85% coverage braid soldered 360° to the connector shell all provide maximum resistance against harmful EMI/RFI, and help you to achieve the maximum performance from your peripheral.
