Coiled RS-232 cable for CR series

The Code Corporation CRA-C501 is an 8 ft coiled RS-232 affinity cable designed for point-of-sale environments. It connects compatible CR series bar code readers directly to a host system. The coiled construction keeps the workspace tidy while allowing flexible reach during scanning tasks. This accessory suits retail and logistics staff who need a reliable wired link for their CR900FD, CR1000 or CR1400 devices.

Durable coiled design with RS-232 connector

The cable uses a coiled jacket that resists tangling and reduces strain on the connector during repeated movement. Its RS-232 interface provides a standard serial connection for straightforward integration with existing POS terminals. The 8 ft length gives enough slack for countertop or handheld use without excess cable clutter. Build quality is focused on daily commercial scanning workflows.

Replaces worn or missing serial cables

This cable replaces a damaged or lost original affinity cable for the CR900FD, CR1000 or CR1400 readers. The upgrade is worth it when the existing cable shows connector wear, intermittent signals or physical damage that disrupts scanning. It restores the native serial link without requiring adapter changes or configuration adjustments. Buyers needing USB or other interfaces should verify their reader supports the RS-232 connection first.
