The NI SHC68-C68-D4 is a 0.55-meter shielded single-ended cable designed to connect high-speed digital devices via 68-pin VHDCI connectors. The cable’s shielded construction minimizes electromagnetic interference, maintaining signal integrity across demanding applications. Fixed connectors on both ends provide permanent, reliable connections for data acquisition and signal processing systems where noise immunity is critical.
