Cavo per navigatore Navilock 62875 1,2 m

The Navilock cable Navilock 62875 1.2 m is a purpose-built interface cable designed to connect navigation devices with computer systems. It measures 1.2 metres and combines an M8 connector on one end with RS-232 and USB A interfaces on the other, providing flexibility for serial and USB-equipped hosts. The cable supports reliable data transfer between GNSS/navigation equipment and PCs or other data logging devices, and its construction aims to withstand repeated connection cycles in mobile and fixed installations.

Advantages

This 1.2 m Navilock cable offers a compact length suitable for desktop and in-vehicle setups while minimising cable clutter. The mixed-connector design (M8 to RS-232 + USB A) eliminates the need for multiple adapters when connecting a navigation receiver to different host interfaces. The cable’s durable jacket and strain relief at the connectors enhance mechanical robustness and help maintain signal integrity during frequent handling.

Suitable for

• Connecting GNSS/navigation receivers to laptops or desktop computers
• Field data collection where serial or USB logging is required
• Vehicle installations requiring a short, robust interface cable
• Testing and configuration of navigation devices in service environments

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.2 m
• Connector A: M8 circular connector
• Connector B: RS-232 (serial) and USB A
• Supported interfaces: RS-232 serial communication and USB 2.0 host connectivity
• Construction: flexible outer jacket with strain relief at connector ends

How to use

Connect the M8 end of the cable to the compatible port on the navigation device, ensuring correct alignment of the connector pins and a secure threaded or push-fit engagement as applicable. Plug the RS-232 or USB A plug into the corresponding port on the computer or data logger. If using the RS-232 interface, confirm the host device’s COM port settings (baud rate, parity, stop bits) match the navigation unit’s configuration. For USB connection, allow the host operating system to recognise the device and install any required drivers. Verify communication by initiating data output from the navigation device and checking reception on the host software.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension on the 1.2 m cable, route it away from high-current power lines to reduce electrical interference, and secure connections before moving equipment. If serial communication issues occur, check COM port parameters and cable seating; for USB problems, confirm driver installation and try alternate USB ports.
