Data Interfaces
The following cables, or equivalent computer grade cables incorporating twisted,
shielded pairs, are recommended:
•
•
The Belden 8175 has lower capacitance; however, it has a larger diameter and requires
the selection of an appropriate connector shell.
The typical cable length for the serial/parallel interfaces is ≤ 5 meters (16.405 feet).
The interface operates to the specifications described in Table A-3.

Configuration
Note: The jumper location on the interface card is shown in Figure A-3.
A single jumper provides the option for a transmit or receive reference clock on
connector J3 (pins 2 and 15). The pins are configured at the factory as signal ground per
TM 1449.
