As stated, no special "noise treated" cables are required when operating with
low impedance accelerometers. Signals may be run over any conventional
Instrumentation grade two wire twisted pair shielded or coaxial cable.
SECURING CABLES
Figure 6-1 shows the recommended method of securing cables.

data. Typically, low impedance devices are not affected by sharp cable bends
or cable motion.
