L-Com IEEE-488 GPIB Normal / Normal Cable CIB Series (14.75 in.) Description

Functions

Designed for IEEE-488 (GPIB) interface, this cable facilitates bidirectional digital communication between instrumentation and controllers, supporting data, handshake, and control signal transmission. It features standard Normal/Normal connectors, ensuring compatibility with GPIB-compliant devices, and maintains signal integrity over short distances (approximately 14.75 inches). The cable provides low noise, impedance matched connections, enabling reliable command, status, and data exchange in automated test, measurement, and control systems within laboratory and industrial environments.

Platforms

Designed for General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB/IEEE-488/HP-IB) systems to interconnect programmable instruments and a system controller. It interfaces with GPIB-enabled test and measurement equipment like oscilloscopes, multimeters, and power supplies via stackable 24-pin Centronics-style male/female connectors. The stackable design allows for daisy-chaining multiple devices in linear or star topologies. Common applications include automated test equipment (ATE), laboratory automation, and data acquisition systems where multiple instruments are controlled by a single computer with a GPIB interface card.

Applications

Used in automated test and measurement systems, laboratories, and industrial environments to connect IEEE-488 compliant instruments like oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and multimeters to controllers. It enables synchronized control, data acquisition, and programming of multiple instruments for R&D, production testing, and quality assurance processes, facilitating complex experimental setups and data logging.

Accessories

Two IEEE-488 (GPIB) male connectors, 24-pin, Centronics-style, stackable. Each connector provides a parallel bus interface for controlling and transferring data between compatible test and measurement instruments or a controller. No accessories or associated equipment are required for the cable's operation.

Interfaces

One IEEE-488 (GPIB) connector per end, 24-pin micro ribbon connectors compliant with IEEE-488.1 standard, designed for GPIB instrumentation control and data sharing. Both connectors are male standard size, compatible with standard IEEE-488 interfaces on instruments and controllers. Cable length fixed at 14.75 inches.

Specifications

Standard IEEE-488 GPIB cable designed for data communication between laboratory instrumentation and computers. Features normal/normal connector configuration on both ends, allowing direct connection between controllers and instruments. Provides reliable, high-speed parallel data transfer with complete handshaking signals. Supports data rates up to 1MB/s with standard hardware. Constructed with fully-shielded 24 conductors arranged in twisted pairs to minimize crosstalk and EMI interference. Compatible with HPIB and GPIB-488.2 standards. Integrates seamlessly in test automation systems, laboratory setups, and industrial measurement applications.
