GC Electronics - 45-715 – Parallel CN36 Cable, Centronics 36 Male to Female, 10'

GC Electronics - 45-715 – Parallel Computer Cable, Centronics 36 Male to Centronics 36 Female 10Foot, New. The GC Electronics 45-715 is a legacy Centronics 36-Pin Male to Centronics 36-Pin Female parallel extension cable. It is primarily engineered for vintage computing systems, legacy industrial machinery, and dot-matrix or early inkjet parallel printer configurations. A Centronics 36-Pin Male to Centronics 36-Pin Female configuration is standard for a parallel extension cable or port saver. This interface (often called CN36 or IEEE 1284 Type B) is typically found on legacy equipment, dot-matrix printers, industrial machinery, and CNC controllers. Technical Specifications Connector A: Centronics 36-Pin Male (CEN36 M) Connector B: Centronics 36-Pin Female (CEN36 F) Length: 10 Feet Wire Gauge: 28 AWG Shielding: 100% Mylar Aluminum Foil Wrap Color: Putty / Gray Contacts: Gold Plated Alternative Part Number: 50F6409 Key Features Molded Strain Relief: Heavy-duty molded-in boot construction prevents internal wiring damage from severe bending or pulling. Industrial Shielding: High-coverage foil wrap guards parallel data signals against Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). Straight-Through Wiring: All 36 contacts are wired standard pin-to-pin, making it highly reliable for extension routing or pass-through communication lines. Primary Applications Unlike standard printer cables that utilize a DB-25 connector at the computer end, this cable serves as an in-series extension line. It is used to lengthen existing parallel connections or plug directly into industrial data switch boxes, CNC machinery controllers, hardware test fixtures, or legacy print servers utilizing full 36-pin micro-ribbon interfaces.
