37-Pin Cables
In most applications, you can use the following cables:
•
SH37F-37M
—(Recommended) 37-pin female-to-male shielded I/O cable,
(1 m and 2 m lengths)
•
SH37F-P-4
—37-pin female-to-pigtails shielded I/O cable
•
R37F-37M
—37-pin female-to-male ribbon I/O cable
37-Pin Screw Terminal Accessories
National Instruments offers several styles of screw terminal connector blocks. Use your 37-pin
cable to connect a PCI-6221 (37-pin) device to one of the following connector blocks:
•
CB-37F-HVD
—37-pin DIN rail screw terminal block
•
CB-37FV
—Vertical DIN rail-mountable terminal block with 37 screw terminals
•
CB-37FH
—Horizontal DIN rail-mountable connector block with 37 screw terminals
•
CB-37F-LP
—Low profile connector block with 37 screw terminals
RTSI Cables
Use RTSI bus cables to connect timing and synchronization signals among PCI/PCI Express
devices, such as X Series, E Series, CAN, and other measurement, vision, and motion devices.
Since PXI devices use PXI backplane signals for timing and synchronization, no cables are
required.
37-Pin Custom Cabling
NI offers cables and accessories for many applications. However, if you want to develop your
own cable, the following kits can assist you:
•
TB-37F-37SC
—37-pin solder cup terminals, shell with strain relief
•
TB-37F-37CP
—37-pin crimp & poke terminals, shell with strain relief
Adhere to the following guidelines for best results:
•
For AI signals, use shielded, twisted-pair wires for each AI pair of differential inputs.
Connect the shield for each signal pair to the ground reference at the source.
•
Route the analog lines separately from the digital lines.
•
When using a cable shield, use separate shields for the analog and digital sections of the
cable. Failure to do so results in noise coupling into the analog signals from transient digital
signals.
