Cables and Terminators

There are two main types of cabling you can use: data-grade

cable and microphone cable. Although pin-compatible

microphone cable is suitable for small-scale designs, data

cable is recommended, especially for longer cable runs. Data

cable is designed to carry a higher-quality signal with less

susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.

The cable you use should have the characteristics listed

below:

• 2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield

• maximum capacitance between conductors - 30 pF/ft.

• maximum capacitance between conductor and shield - 55

pF/ft.

• maximum resistance of 20 Ω/1000 ft.

• nominal impedance 100–140 Ω

• 22–24 AWG with insulation having a dielectric rating of

300 volts or higher

Belden 9841 data-grade cabling meets specifications for EIA

RS-485 applications and is highly recommended for use with

Studio Color.
