The digital connections should be made with high-quality 75 screened
cable. Suitable cables are available from Meridian. We do not recommend
using audio cables, which do not have adequate shielding or the correct
impedance, or cables intended for UHF applications, as these do not
provide adequate shielding in the 1–30MHz region.
