Which type of shielded twisted pair cable assembly for BNC-type differential input should be used?

[Koit]

The DAQ I use is USB-6251 BNC device where AI signal inputs are BNC type. The user manual recommends to use DIFFERENTIAL AI mode and individually shielded twisted pair wire for connecting low analog signal to the device. Which type of cable assembly is appropriate for this?

Hello Koit,

Please review the recommended cables for the NI USB-6251 that have been included in the accessories section of the product page.

Thank you.

Hi Koit,

The BNC cable is a RG-59 coaxial cable.  Hopefully this helps!
