The NI SH6850 is a 1-meter shielded cable that bridges 68-pin DAQ devices to 50-pin accessories and terminal blocks. It maintains signal integrity in data acquisition and control systems by employing double ground shielding to minimize noise interference across demanding operational environments.
Technical Specifications
• Cable Length: 1 meter
• Connector A: 68-pin female with screw-latching mechanism
• Connector B: 50-pin female standard connector
• Shielding: Double ground shield
• Jacket Material: PVC
• Characteristic Impedance: 50 Ω (typical for shielded DAQ cables)
– Key Features
• Double ground shield design reduces EMI and maintains signal fidelity
• Screw-latch mechanism on 68-pin connector ensures secure mating
• PVC jacket provides durability in laboratory and field installations
• Direct connectivity eliminates intermediate adapters between DAQ hardware and terminal blocks
– Typical Applications
• Signal routing from National Instruments S Series and E Series DAQ devices
• Connection to CB-50 and CB-50LP terminal blocks for expanded I/O
• Data acquisition systems requiring noise-suppressed analog and digital signal paths
• Control system integration where 68-to-50 pin conversion is required
– Compatibility & Integration
The SH6850 connects all 68-pin S Series and E Series DAQ devices directly to 50-pin accessories and terminal blocks. Specific compatibility exists with CB-50 and CB-50LP terminal blocks. When deployed with NI-6110, -6111, -6122, -6123, -6132, or -6133 modules, certain device functionalities may have restrictions. Connection to 50-pin accessories may require an additional 50-pin to 50-pin ribbon cable depending on system topology.
