The Cisco CAB-HD8-ASYNC is an 8-port EIA-232 Asynchronous Cable, often referred to as an octal cable. It is designed for connecting devices using the EIA-232 (RS232) interface, allowing for asynchronous communication across multiple devices in enterprise data centers and remote management systems. The cable connects to the router via a single 68-pin HD D-Sub (HD-68) Male connector and splits out to eight Male RJ-45 connectors on the other end. It has a cable length of 10 ft (3m) and is constructed with a copper conductor. This cable is often required for Cisco 2511 series routers and is compatible with various Cisco router models including the 1801, 1801W, 1802, 1802W, 1803, 1803W, 1811, 1811W, 1812, 1812W, 1841, 2801, 2811, 2821, 2851, 3825, and 3845 series.
