Cable options

In addition to sensor construction and connector choices, the type of cable and cable material must be carefully chosen to ensure proper operation. The two types of cables most commonly used to connect an accelerometer to acquisition equipment are coaxial and shielded multi-conductor. Coaxial cables carry the power and signal on an inner conductor and have a shield or outer conductor which acts as the signal common. Because coaxial cable works well with BNC and Microdot connectors, it is generally used with either sensors in a walk-around mode or to connect electronic instrument components together.
