China RoHS
Cabling
At the very minimum, all cables should include a braided shield. Ideal results have been obtained
with twisted pair cabling which has a foil shield surrounding each pair plus foil and 90% braid
shielding around the bundle. In addition, ensure local electrical code requirements are met.
The next cable parameters must be considered:
Braid
Foil
Twisted Pair
Stranded
Pair
Shield
Termination
Vertex Edge System
Must have a minimum 90% coverage
When used with braid, provides 100% coverage.
Do not use foil alone. It has a tendency to break.
Provides for cancelling of magnetic fields
Provides the greatest surface area
Continuation of the shield to the cabinet earth ground is most
important.
For discrete wire terminations, pigtails to the cabinet (connector)
ground should be extremely short (no greater than three inches).
For multiconductor connector terminations, only 360° shielded
shells should be used.
