the units are installed properly, using suitable cables and connections. The following
must be observed:
C.1
Limitation of Emissions:
C.1.1 'D-Type' Connections
This product relies on the use of screened cables for connection to the 15 way and 25
way 'D-Type' ports. The cables must have the foil or braid screen connected effectively
to the metal headshell to ensure continued compliance. The following headshells are
among those which have been found to provide suitable screen connection:
25 Way
15 Way
a)
CINCH
SCH25-K
SCH15-K
b)
RS
460-979
454-930
c)
TOBY
MHDTZK-25-K
MHDTZK-15-K
The diagram below illustrates an example of a suitable screen connection. Note how
the foil or braid screen is bent back over the 'C' clip to achieve a pressure contact of the
screen against the shell:
It is important to keep the screen to shell connection as short as possible.
