Gender Changers

Our gender changers are wired to allow two standard cables to be connected at either end. They are perfect for turning an ordinary cable into an extension cable or connecting devices with built-in cables.

In general, the use of a gender changer (sometimes called a gender-bender or splicer) is less ideal than a direct cable, because the additional connection introduced by the splice increases the signal's susceptibility to interference, noise, and loss. But sometimes there's no alternative, and in those cases, the simplicity and low cost of a coupler makes it a sturdy choice.

Please see our line of panel-mount couplers for gender changers that can be used in panel installations, electrical enclosures, etc.

We also build many types of gender changers to customer demand, such as V.35, RS-449 (D37) etc.
