SCXI-1345 Shielded Cable
This guide describes how to install the SCXI-1345 shielded cable with an adapter board between
an SCXI module and a data acquisition board. In addition to the SCXI-1345 kit contents, you
will also need an SCXI chassis, an SCXI module, a computer, a multifunction I/O (MIO) board,
a small Phillips-head screwdriver, and a small flathead screwdriver.
Introduction
With the SCXI-1345 shielded cable, you can make a low-noise, long-distance connection
between your SCXI chassis and your MIO board. You can use the SCXI-1345 with the
following MIO boards:
PC/XT, PC AT
Macintosh
AT-MIO-16
NB-MIO-16
AT-MIO-16F-5
NB-MIO-16X
AT-MIO-16X
The SCXI-1345 shielded cable consists of a 1, 2, 5, or 10 m round cable that has a 50-pin female
connector with a grounding strap at one end and a 68-pin female connector at the other end.
When plugged into the SCXI-1345 adapter board, the shielded cable brings the pinout of the
MIO board I/O connector to the SCXI module and to a breakout connector you can use with
other SCXI accessories, such as the SCXI-1180 and the SCXI-1351.

In addition, each version of the kit contains the following components:
¥ Cable adapter assembly
