The Keysight Y1136A is a 3.0-meter shielded twisted-pair D-Sub cable assembly that connects modules directly to the Keysight 34980A multifunction switch/measure mainframe. Built with 50-pin male/female D-Sub connectors, this cable delivers the electrical integrity and noise rejection required for accurate measurements in laboratory and field test environments.
Technical Specifications
• Connector Type: 50-pin D-Sub (Male/Female)
• Cable Length: 3.0 meters (9.84 feet)
• Voltage Rating: 300V DC
• Current Rating: 3A Maximum
• Cable Construction: Twisted pair with outer shield
– Key Features
• Outer shield minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) for signal integrity.
• Twisted-pair design reduces crosstalk and noise across signal lines.
• 50-pin D-Sub connectors ensure secure, repeatable connections.
• Optimized electrical characteristics for low-loss signal transmission.
– Typical Applications
• Direct interconnection between the 34980A mainframe and plug-in switching/measurement modules.
• Multi-channel signal routing in automated test systems.
• Industrial test and measurement environments where signal fidelity is critical.
– Compatibility & Integration
The Y1136A connects directly to the Keysight 34980A multifunction switch/measure mainframe. Some module configurations may require two cables for complete functionality. The 50-pin D-Sub interface ensures compatibility with all 34980A-compatible modules and maintains the electrical performance specifications of the mainframe system.
