Product Features
Technical Overview
This splitter cable features a hybrid connector design that bridges different interface standards commonly found in POS hardware. The 8-pin RJ-45 male connector plugs directly into APG cash drawers with MultiPRO 320 or 520 interfaces, while the dual RJ-12 female connectors accommodate standard receipt printer cables from manufacturers like Epson and Star.
The cable's construction prioritizes reliability with copper conductors that minimize signal loss and resist electromagnetic interference. With a 10-foot reach, it provides flexible placement options for cash drawers positioned under counters or in separate enclosures. The splitter characteristic enables parallel connectivity without requiring additional adapters or signal converters.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Cable Length, Product Material, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This interface cable delivers practical benefits for POS system integrators and retail operators seeking to optimize their cash drawer connectivity. The dual RJ-12 female ports enable connection to multiple receipt printers from a single cash drawer, eliminating the need for separate interface boxes or complex wiring schemes.
Direct Compatibility
Designed specifically for APG cash drawers with MultiPRO 320 or 520 interfaces, this cable ensures plug-and-play operation without configuration or driver installation.
- Replaces CD-005A and CD-014A cables
- Works with Epson and Star printers
- No additional interface hardware required
Reliable Signal Transmission
Copper conductors maintain signal integrity over the full cable length, preventing drawer communication errors that can disrupt transaction processing.
- Reduces electromagnetic interference
- Maintains consistent drawer response times
- Withstands frequent plug/unplug cycles
Deployment / Use Cases
The CD-D1D2EP splitter cable serves retail environments where multiple receipt printers need to access a shared cash drawer. In convenience stores with separate checkout lanes, this cable allows each lane's printer to trigger the same central drawer, streamlining cash management while maintaining transaction isolation.
Hospitality venues benefit from the cable's ability to connect kitchen printers and front-desk terminals to a single cash drawer. Restaurants can use one cable to link both order printers and payment terminals to the same drawer, reducing hardware costs and simplifying nightly reconciliation. The 10-foot length accommodates countertop printer placements while keeping the cash drawer securely positioned below.
Physical Profile
The cable's 10-foot length provides installation flexibility for various counter configurations, while the lightweight copper construction minimizes strain on connector ports. The RJ-45 male connector features a standard 8-pin configuration that securely locks into APG cash drawer interfaces, and the dual RJ-12 female connectors accept common printer interface cables without requiring gender changers.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 0.80 oz (22.68 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
