Data/Communications Cables
Data and communication cables that come from a remote structure
(refer to the chapter High Frequency (HF) Bonding) will carry noise
on their shields. Follow the guidelines listed below when installing
data or communication cables.
• Follow the product manual recommendations for termination
resistors, minimum and maximum length, etc.
• Carefully segregate data and communication cables from dirty and
especially very-dirty cables.
• Ground shields to the panel at the point of entry when permitted.
Check your manual for the recommended procedure. Connecting
to the 360° shield is preferable to the use of pigtails. If pigtails
must be used, they should be kept short. Refer to the section
Grounding Cable Shields in Appendix A for more information on
grounding cable shields.
• Refer to the chapter Filtering Noise for more information.
