Notes on selecting cables
• The thicker a cable is, the greater the pressure on the option card and the greater the possibility of
a failure occurring will be.
• The thinner a cable is, the poorer the electrical contact and the greater the possibility of the con-
ductor breaking will be.
• The longer the cable is, the more likely a voltage drop in the PG power supply or PG signal will
occur.
