Product Description

The NI SH160DIN-4XDB50F is a shielded, high-density cable assembly. It’s specifically designed to connect certain NI switch modules, such as the PXI-252x series and the PXI-2510, to an external system. This cable simplifies the process of routing multiple channels for data acquisition and control applications.

Product Specifications

The SH160DIN-4XDB50F is a cable assembly, so its specifications are based on its physical and electrical characteristics.

• Connectors:
  • One 160-pin DIN connector on one end.
  • Four 50-pin D-SUB connectors on the other end.
• Length: Available in various lengths, typically 1 or 2 meters. The product name often includes a number to indicate the length (e.g., SH160DIN-4XDB50F-2A for a 2-meter cable).
• Voltage Rating: Maximum voltage rating of 150 V, CAT I.
• Current Rating: Maximum current of 2 A per pin.
• Shielding: The cable is shielded to minimize electrical interference and ensure signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.
• Compatibility: Designed for use with NI PXI-252x and PXI-2510 switch modules. The D-SUB connectors are compatible with NI TBX-50 terminal blocks for screw-terminal access.

Product Advantages

• High-Density Connectivity: The cable allows you to connect a high-channel-count switch module to your system with a single, organized cable assembly. This is much more efficient than using multiple separate cables.
• Signal Integrity: The built-in shielding helps protect your signals from electromagnetic interference (EMI). This is crucial for maintaining accurate and reliable measurements, especially in industrial or test environments.
• Simplified System Integration: By breaking out the 160-pin DIN connector into four standard 50-pin D-SUB connectors, the cable makes it easier to connect to common terminal blocks or other system components.
• Durability: The robust construction ensures a reliable and durable connection for critical applications where high data integrity is paramount.

Product Applications

The SH160DIN-4XDB50F cable is an essential accessory in many high-channel-count test and measurement systems.

• Automated Test Equipment (ATE): It’s used in ATE systems to route signals from a test fixture or a unit under test (UUT) through a PXI switch module to various instruments.
• Aerospace and Defense: Applications in these industries often require high-density switching for complex signal routing and validation, making this cable an ideal solution.
• Semiconductor Test: The cable can be used in semiconductor test systems to switch between different pins on a device under test, facilitating a comprehensive test routine.

Precautions

To ensure the safe and proper use of the SH160DIN-4XDB50F cable, keep these points in mind:

• Voltage and Current Ratings: Do not exceed the maximum voltage (150 V, CAT I) or current (2 A per pin) ratings of the cable.
• Proper Connection: Always ensure that both the 160-pin DIN connector and the D-SUB connectors are securely and correctly seated. Loose connections can lead to intermittent signals or system errors.
• Compatibility: Verify that you are using this cable with a compatible NI switch module (PXI-252x or PXI-2510) and that your terminal blocks are also compatible.
• Handling: Although the cable is durable, avoid excessive bending or kinking, as this can damage the internal wiring and shielding, affecting signal integrity.
