Coaxial Cable Recommendations Caution: Careful selection of proper cable is essential to obtain the best performance from this equipment. Vicon assumes no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than those recommended, or equivalent, are installed. In all cases, coaxial cable impedance should be 75 ohms.

Vicon assumes no responsibility for poor performance when cables other than those recommended are installed. Materials Use a pure copper stranded conductor with or without a tin plating to obtain a low DC resistance. Do not use cable with either a steel or an aluminum stranded conductor because these do not transfer signals effectively for long distances.
