Belden® molded cable assemblies are designed for long life and reliable performance in a variety of input/output (I/O) and keyboard interface applications.
Among the many features of the cable assemblies are these performance-enhancing attributes:
Shielding
The assemblies' molded handles are 100% shielded (where used) to assist in FCC compliance, while guarding against EMI and RFI. Shield continuity is maintained through the entire length of the assembly. The connector shield is connected to both the connector shell and the cable shield. This provides a low resistance ground path to optimize shield performance.
Handles
Straight- or right-angle handles are available for different connecting situations. The standard molding is PVC.
Connectors
Connectors consist of tin-plated shells with grounding indents on male connectors. Pins and sockets are constructed of brass or phosphor-bronze base with gold selectively plated over nickel.
Retention Systems Belden offers several types of retention systems. They include:
Wiring Patterns
Standard wiring is point-to-point on most assemblies. Special wiring is available upon request.
Cables
For standard assemblies, Belden utilizes three standard cable configurations for tailoring a cable to a specific electrical environment. The cable configurations are as follows:
